OLPC is looking to add multi-touch to our interface over
the next year --- it is certainly necessary for a tablet.
But "multi-touch" describes a huge range of parameters.
Before taking a first pass at a spec. document, I'd like to
stir up some discussion. Here are the parameters that

Cool, please provide a kernel RPM for testing. ;-)

I looked at the kernel patch for emulating the missing instruction
(long NOP). It looks like it works, and only needs minor patching-up
for security enforcement. The big argument on the Linux kernel list
was about not having a little kludge like this, which is likely to
grow to emulate many other

Hi all,
at today's SoaS meeting [1], we agreed on applying the SoaS Activity
Inclusion Criteria [2] as outlined in the wiki to the activity
selection for the upcoming release of SoaS v.4. We'd like to encourage
you to work towards meeting these goals and to submit your proposals
for activities and
