Excellent. You may know that the XO was originally unveiled at the World Summit on the Information Society in Tunisia, by then UN Secretary-General Kofi Annan. It is unfortunate that the government there did not pick up the idea, but we know that much can be done by volunteer work and by non-profits/NGOs. Both OLPC and Sugar Labs have active mailing lists that can help you get started, and information in their respective Wikis. I recommend http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Sugar_Labs/Getting_Involved for the parts of the project dealing with software and content. That page has a link for the It's-An-Education-Project mailing list. Also, http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Participate for hardware programs and country deployments. This information will no doubt raise further questions for you, which we will be happy to address. Now, what are your questions? What would you like to try to do, and what help do you need with it? > Best Regards > > _______________________________________________ > Olpc-open mailing list > [email protected] > http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/olpc-open > -- Edward Mokurai (默雷/निशब्दगर्ज/نشبدگرج) Cherlin Silent Thunder is my name, and Children are my nation.
