[Sameer Verma]

Also related to the meeting: I got a note from James Cameron, that
some of you may find useful. Here it is, verbatim:

==

G'day,

Sorry, I can't make it.  For me it would be 3am on Sunday morning, and
I have interesting tasks later in the day.

I work for OLPC.


Lately I've been working on a combined Android and Sugar build for the
XO-4 laptop, on request from a deployment.

More detail at http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Android

People with an XO-4 can get involved by installing it on an SD card or
on the laptop itself, and giving it a going over.  We plan another
release in the next few days.


This week I've been working on a new camera driver for the XO laptop,
which was forced by end-of-life of a camera sensor we had been using
in production.  This gives us a chance to include a few wireless and
firmware fixes.

More detail at http://wiki.laptop.org/go/13.2.1

People can get involved by testing the builds as they become
available.  An XO-1 build for use on an SD card is available now.


In the background I look after the Wiki, the development
infrastructure, and respond to developer key requests for XO laptops.
To unlock your laptop, see http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Collection_stick


Have a great time at the event!

For those of you who plan on attending in person, could any of you bring a
USB 3 hub if you have one and/or a laptop with two USB 3 ports. This is to
make a copy of the Internet-in-a-Box image. 700GB over USB 2 takes 21 hours.

* We have a copy of the "Internet-in-a-Box" dataset. If you want a
copy, bring a 1TB USB drive with you. USB3 preferred. I'll have a
local copy as well, so we can always duplicate at a later date as
well.

* We'll also have a functioning version of XSCE 5.0 school server
running on a XO 1.75 (laptop becomes a server) running among other
services, Pathagar (https://github.com/PathagarBooks/pathagar), XOVis
(https://github.com/martasd/xovis), Munin
(http://munin-monitoring.org/), Ajenti (http://ajenti.org/),
Internet-in-a-Box (http://internet-in-a-box.org/) and such.

* Some updates on Bhagmalpur, India (http://bhagmalpur.wordpress.com).

I hope Bruce will highlight RACHEL and some of his solar stuff.
