I cannot say for sure that Fedora's Live USB efforts are being influenced by our feedback. Most feedback is getting back to Fedora through Sebastian. Alas, there is not a concise wiki page and there is still a lot of noise in the feedback--something we are working to improve. But what we do have is about 50 kids and teachers using SoaS--mostly with few problems--which is pretty good news. -walter -- Walter Bender Sugar Labs http://www.sugarlabs.org _______________________________________________ SoaS mailing list [email protected] http://lists.sugarlabs.org/listinfo/soas
