hum, but 0.84 seems to be unsupported by olpc, right? You can imagine what it could mean when you are in production. By the way a bit sidetopic, but related to usability, I noted the buggy behavior of the touchpad is still there. Is it related to a physical problem which can't be fixed? I am pretty sure my student will be very easily frustrated with that, and drop any effort after that. > there is currently no mechanism, other than activities, for sharing > with many people at once. A long overdue feature of Sugar is "Groups", even sharing between 2 xo will be a big step. I am still impressed such feature was not present since day 1. Was it not part of the sold package? I am wondering how it looks like in place where thousand of xo are deployed.
