Thank you Martin, Of course, the "Ultra Mobile XO Server" project will be a community development effort. This is due to 3 complementary factors:
- I am primary a "Pootle translator" & one of the board members of our young grassroot organization "OLPC France". OLPC France is willing to contribute to the success of the OLPC project and to the emergence of active grassroot organizations here in Europe. - We want to build our efforts on the previous developments - We will make soon an appeal to French / European developers at the 9th "Libre Software Meeting / Rencontre Mondiale des Logiciels Libres" LSM/RMLL (http://2008.rmll.info/), where a very important community of educative content and FOSS developers is expected. We are planning as well to launch during this event an "Idea Contest" for which we want help to build a french/european community of developers/educators contribution to the OLPC project. Our "Ultra Mobile XO Server" will also be one of the development projects we want to push. Actually, we do use virtualization software as VirtualBox and Qemu in order to explore the possible issues around this project, due to the lack of appropriate HW, but we will soon need a few XOs. We will then hopefully be able to contribute fully and to share more and more with the global OLPC comunity.
