How do we start the process to join the OLPC
developers program? Here is a list of Colors!
features I would like to see working on XO-1
and XO-1.5 platforms:

(1) wacom tablet support and investigate support
for other tablet brands

    Good news here.  It looks like the various
    tablets use the XInput to talk to the software.
    That means whatever we do should be applicable
    to other tablets with XInput support (regardless
    of brand or model).

(2) working videopaint mode os 10.1.3+

(3) improved collaboration support such as

(a) fix color change problem
(b) performance improvements to
support larger common drawings
(think class solar system project
where each student could work on
a separate planet/moon/...)
(c) save as image
(d) save as drw-ing
(e) save as movie

BTW, I just got a Wacom Bamboo Pen and Touch for
$100 and it works with the linuxwacom driver for
later versions (not the one I sent you).

Once 10.1.3 is released, I plan to to a clean
build of the linuxwacom driver for a formal
release of Colors! to support it. This will
include what is needed to install in the base
release to build/develop Colors! or wacome
related software.

I have two nieces with XO-1 and wacom tablets
so user feedback from that is already coming.
For me to test, I would need 2 XO-1.5's so that
the XO-1.5 to XO-1.5 collaboration could be
evaluated.

Do you have an XO-1.5 already? What do you
think you would need as far as laptop hardware
support?

Cheers,
Chris
