Comment(by mstone):

 The availability of rainbow-enabled ext3 images now makes it possible to
 try out the security system under emulation. Unfortunately, the minor
 differences between the emulator and the XO (e.g. the lack of a camera)
 broke assumptions of the current software. This is straight-forward to fix
 at the moment but is going to get worse in th e long run as we come to
 rely more and more on XO-specific resources and filesystem-layouts.
 Consequently, regular testing will be required to stave off bitrot.
