Meshing while suspended

[Ronak Chokshi]

Yes, it is absolutely OK for people outside OLPC to test 5.220.11p4. In
fact, we would like to gather input on that.

Thanks

Yeah, B3 will definitely be done with 5.220.10.p5.  The question was
more about whether people outside OLPC could test the 5.220.11.p4

We've been mostly frozen on the software stuff for about a week in any
case.
