W ho!

tomorrow morn - in some 12hs - the Welly testers team will be playing
with the latest SoaS, which I understand is the best place to see this
code branch in action. Sorry it took us so long to get organised with
this.

My plan is to get started on the traditional smoketests we have for
the XO, on a variety of hw. We'll focus on hw that wants to play with
us anyway, if something is really not Linux/Fedora-friendly, then
there's little Sugar can do :-)

If there's stuff you want to suggest we try... now's the time!

cheers,

Some smoke testing seems to me like a good first step. but afterwards
would be nice if you could focus on the new stuff as explained in the
release notes in:
