sorry, certified ignoramus here, I got it (I hope...). The "spins" are the updated build, as developers upload their bestest and latest.
So, if I test, I should test spin os15 (or later, as things move along)

AND those numbers have nothing to do with OLPC OS releases.

Thanks!

Thank you again!

maybe I got this wrong. what happens is that I do not understand the nature of the os## folder names, and, bottom line, how can I help most to get the repositories right this time for the msp430 toolchain.
I can test with XO-1 with dev key.

If I get right the meaning of "spin", the "os##" moniker would be the corresponding Fedora release?
I get that from http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Fedora_on_XO

so, the link you indicate,

 http://build.laptop.org/13.1.0/os15/xo-1/

would be based on Fedora 15?

questions:
1) Are there Release 13 files for testing on XO-1 I can try?
I apologize if I was not clear. The 13.1 series is still under
development. It is not a stable release and will only load on machines
that have developer keys.

There are builds for XO 1, e.g., http://build.laptop.org/13.1.0/os15/xo-1/

As is of record, I am most concerned on how the msp430 toolkit will build.
Significant issues with os 12 repositories...
http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/OLPC_XO-1

2) What is the role of these 31012 builds? are they meant as an official update? are they undergoing further testing? In short, should I point people
to those instead of to the 21021?

background:
the link Walter offers (thanks!)
http://build.laptop.org/13.1.0/os13/
has only XO-4 files...

while
http://wiki.laptop.org/go/13.1.0#XO-1 would seem to indicate there are some
XO-1 files somewhere
Not every spin is built for every machine, but there should be builds
for XO-1 for most spins.

Also, if I look for 12.1 files, here:
http://build.laptop.org/13.1.0/os12/xo-1/
they are named 31012
while
http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Release_notes/12.1.0#XO-1
points to 21021 ones


BTW, the os14 directories /do/ have X0-1 files, but I guess that's trying
timetravel :-)
http://build.laptop.org/13.1.0/os14/

thank you!

1. Simon Schampijer announced the release of Sugar 0.98. This is a
major milestone for Sugar Labs as it is the first release that takes
touch seriously. It also incorportates many improvements to the GTK3
port. The Sugar Developer Team deserves a resounding celebatory cheer
of thanks for a their effort. Read the release notes here [1]. (Note
that OLPC has been incorporating Sugar 0.98 in their 13.1 series of
builds, available for download here [2] to run on XO hardware.)
