Comments and suggestions welcome. Please no fussing about formatting
or grammar; this is all draft. However, I would appreciate anyone
pointing out broken links.

Mostly, I'd like to hear what you think I've left out (or anything
I've gotten wrong).

The thrust of the article is tarting to emerge:  CP4E is real again
thanks to OLPC (a project whose near-term success, while desireable,
is uncertain) and Sugar, its user environment, which may well be
unstoppable.

On the advocacy front, this presents Python with a potential killer
app with possibilities far larger  than Ruby on Rails can ever aspire
to.

thanks for your attention
Michael Tobis
