this in
dev.l.o. The steps to repro are good, just add precise versions of the
OS and the affected activities.

This is a priority for us. We get requests from teachers all the time
about being able to access a files server, and sharing files between
Sugar and GNOME.

* Plan Ceibal server (Uruguay)
* Sugar Server (Activity Central)
I am keen to have some consolidation, to avoid parallel development
and splintering of the community. I am open to discussion on how we

So far I have counted at least six school server types:
* OLPC XS
* XS-AU (Australia)
* NEXS (Nepal)
* Paraguay Educa server
* Plan Ceibal
be the
AP. If we need to connect to the school network, we can use a
USB2Ethernet adapter. This will also allow the server to leverage the

class.

going to be a royal pain in the ass, since they have switched everything
to Gnome

Would that mean that if we were to upgrade to FF4, we would have a disparity

rendering between GNOME and Sugar?
The issues becomes one of cost benefit. What is the cost of OLPC, AC, or
individual deployments
Firefox 4 in the OLPC/DX OS?
