[OLPC-devel] What to do with 30 part-time student developers?

[Mark J. Foster]

Hi, Ron!

I agree with your list, but the problem is that power management is 
extremely complex, and needs folks that are quite skilled at low-level 
code, minimal resource requirements, fast execution, etc (at least our 
power management code will require this).  While it's possible that 
these students may have the necessary expertise, it's not common.  On 
the other hand, they may well be a good choice for more user-facing code 
(i.e. power management configuration, as compared to core PM and driver 
code).

Cheers!
