The recent problems with http://download.laptop.org should have been
fixed. If you still have connectivity troubles, please let us know.

This is a signed release candidate that can be installed on all XOs,
even those with security enabled.

We're looking for testing and feedback on all aspects of the system.
Thanks for any help you can offer, and for all the feedback that has
been received already.

Our scheduled release date is July 18th.


Since release candidate 2 (build 871) we have fixed the following issues:

- Aleksey Lim fixed a problem with wireless activation from certain
access points.

- We're quite confident that we've nailed the occasional system hang
on resume from suspend issue, related to the wireless hardware.

- Read: navigation with the game keys, page up/down, home/end now works again.

- Paint has updated translations.

- Biology content bundle now works again under a Spanish configuration.
