Hello,
On behalf of the XO Games student team, I'd like to announce the start
of the Pittsburgh CMU/ETC Game Jam, beginning tonight at 6:00 PM EST.
There will be over 50 people in attendance! We will be running the jam
through the weekend till 7:00 PM on Sunday. We are planning on recording
the opening remarks tonight as well as the award prize ceremony on
Sunday and will send out links to them when we are able.
If anyone in the community would like to help out remotely or just see
what sort of activity is going on, we've set up a temporary irc channel
on freenode.net called #xo-game-jam. Finally, any special announcements
about the jam will be posted on our website at www.xogames.org
Wish us luck,
Joshua Seaver, aka Yoshi

Hi,
I'm an intern at olpc right now helping with testing and q and a. I tried
loading your Jump.xo activity on the latest Joyride build. There is a bug in
the olpcgames directory having to do with the get_prgname attribute, which
crashes your activity. There is a bug report about this.
http://dev.laptop.org/ticket/4792
There was a patch with the bug, so I modified the olpcgames/mesh.py file in
your bundle as the patch said to. This effectively fixed your activity, in
that it now loads and can be played. From the bug report, it is unclear as to
whether or not this patch has been applied to wherever activity developers are
supposed to download the olpcgames directory. The patch is pretty minor
anyways, so it should be easy to fix in the olpcgames directory that you have
all the people at the jam use. It would be somewhat of a shame to have a whole
bunch of activities created that don't load.
I am on IRC if you have any questions about this, though I'm not an activity
developer, so I don't know how helpful I can be.
