[Testing] Build 472 - testing

[Ronak Chokshi]

True. Please treat our suggestions of builds only as recommendations.
The final decision of which build should be used for the major
milestones should come from within OLPC based on the accomplishments
planned for that milestone. This is the model we usually follow with
most of our other customers/projects as well.

 

Thanks

Ronak

We need to get Ronak's sign-off on any firmware that we plan to put in
public builds.  That can take a few days, though sometimes it's quick.
