The white paper that Adam is referring to can be found at https://docs.google.com/a/dhanapalan.com/document/pub?id=1dnhU2F6EntepVXTgN8QpkME8fZVUuPjcCoMUfAVKbcc I am the primary author, but it was written by canvassing feedback and opinions from schools and XS community members (including Jerry Vonau, George Hunt, Adam Holt and many others). The paper discusses several use cases and design goals, and outlines the underlying principles behind how we do things in OLPC Australia. There is some miscommunication being spread around that I'd like to clear up. Firstly, this is not a 'secret' project. The white paper explains our mission, and the code repo and issues trackers are open. Secondly, the intent is to create a flexible framework that can be adapted to suit local needs. This is *not*, as some keep asserting, a project to have the XS work only on the XO. The community XS will work on any x86 or ARM based hardware that works with Fedora. The white paper explains this in depth. Sridhar _______________________________________________ IAEP -- It's An Education Project (not a laptop project!)
