They have very similar goals; the main differences in goals, AFAICS, are: 1) release schedule (SoaS-linked vs. OLPC-linked); 2) target audience (SoaS-users vs. OLPC XO-1 build users); 3) the supported desktop experiences (Sugar alone vs. Sugar and GNOME) But I'm publishing my images mainly because I can. I happen to be creating them for my own (XO-1) use, and trying to make them useful to the SoaS people and (hopefully) the F11-on-XO-1 people (in the future). > I'm quite confused about this at the moment as on first sight it seems like > both efforts are trying to do exactly the same thing (making the latest > Sugar run on an XO-1)... They are, almost. I'm also a commiter to fedora-xo (though I haven't had time to do any SoaS or F11-on-XO-1 work lately) and an avid follower of Daniel Drake, Stephen Parrish, and others' work therein. So I hope we're not really duplicating much work, though we're duplicating some git repos and bits-on-disk :). > Thanks, > Christoph Martin
