Thanks for all the comments, but could we please take this off the devel
mailing list and have this conversation with the people who are working on
support, and where it can do much more good? Thanks very much for the help.

You should assume nothing, and you should send questions about G1G1
distribution to help at laptop.org, not to a list of software
developers - that's where you will find the folks who actually know
what's going on g.

Received my 2 XOs ordered last Monday today.
I was surprised they were booting up in 8.1 with the old sugar
interface and not with 8.2.
I was under the impression 8.2.0 was targeted for G1G1-2008, but this
does not seem to be the case,
at least not for the US machines currently in stock at Amazon.

Thanks for supporting the G1G1 program with your purchases! This year it
was extremely important for us to have Amazon stocked with inventory so
orders could be fulfilled and delivered right away, the first day of the
program. That meant that manufacturing actually had to begin before 8.2
Ed,
Thanks for the explanation.
I am not new to OLPC, also participated in the first G1G1, but that XO
is now with my grandson (and has 8.2 on it). Right now I am going to
run olpc-update to get the new XOs on 8.2.

Interesting...
So the wiki can't assume new users have 8.2, that means a lot of pages
will need separate Latest release / Earlier releases sections and/or
encourage users to upgrade.
I wonder how many users with 8.1 will visit
http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Activities and download more recent
Hi Ed,
so since there is no stock in Europe can we assume that the machines
ordered at the UK site will all come with 8.2? Makes support way easier.
