Re: Potential volunteer offering technical writing

Tabitha,

not sure what the exact time difference is between San Francisco and NZ but
maybe we could set up a Skype call between Rachel, you, and us in SF to
coordinate our documentation efforts?

Cheers,
Christoph

So how do we feed the FLOSS manual into the Help activity? Rachel is keen to
help, but keen to see her work on the XO.

Is the FLOSS -> help activity process documented anywhere? I don't think we
are able to help with improving the i10n process or the activity build
process, but we can help with the (english) words themselves.

They provide a build for Android on ARM, it seems.  I don't know if that
would work.

That should be "publicly available linux version of Skype on ARM"

its not supported. gtalk works via empathy.
