Thanks James. These are part of a Pacific region donation pool of 5000. We will have to see what happens. Our advice to future deployments is to do the dev key request thing before the laptops leave for the schools, even if they aren't loaded into the laptops. Thanks. On 03/08/2010, James

We are in Samoa helping out at two small deployments. We are installing a school server and wifi at each school. They are running 8.2.1 on XO-1 hardware (G1G1 donation). We have been running this build on our laptops and it feels like a big step down from the sugar 0.84 and bernies's 0.88 builds
