We are safely locked away in cabin in Gimli, Manitoba ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gimli,_Manitoba )
We have been going through a couple days of reflection. Sometimes painful, but always useful. It feels like many of the big technical pieces are coming together. Now, we are in that awkward adolescence phase, more than an idea... by less than a product. We are 80% done... with 80% left to go :) We are talking about where we should go and what we need to do. Navigating the fog of uncertainty. Through all this I am still pretty confident: 1. George is advocating for what he needs in Haiti. - A full turnkey system from power to wireless. A typical micro-deployment. 2. Jerry is advocating for what he needs in Australia. - Thousands of laptops in 100s of schools which are 1000s of kilometers apart. 3. I am advocating for I think the ecosystem needs in a server appliance. Inexpensive, low power, easily maintainable, sane defaults yet configurable. 4. Adam is advocating for the big picture needs of olpc.... Please join us on this mailing list or IRC #schoolserver to advocate for your deployment or use case. If it feels like your voice is not being heard, patches and clearly define customers specification will have greater effect than all caps :) -- David Farning Activity Central: http://www.activitycentral.com _______________________________________________ Server-devel mailing list Server-devel@lists.laptop.org http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/server-devel
