There's the start of a listing of what some of the deltas from Fedora 10
to the current OLPC software stack is in bugzilla
(https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=FedoraOLPCDelta
iirc) which would be where I'd recommend anyone interested to start with
trying to get some of the changes resolved before Fedora 10 is released.

Longer-term, I think at least from my ideal point of view, an OLPC
software release can be viewed largely as just a spin of Fedora bits
plus perhaps a few things which are not suitable for Fedora, thus making
the amount of "rebasing" needed slim to none.  One thing that would help
there is having more OLPC people involved in maintaining/co-maintaining
packages which are "critical" to OLPC in Fedora.  If anyone's interested
in stepping up here and needs pointers on how to get started, let me
know.
