[support-gang] ANNOUNCEMENT XSCE 0.3 Final Release

[tkkang at nurturingasia.com]

Good news indeed and my appreciation to all the hard work the XSCE team have put into. 

I recently installed R2 on SD a card for XO 1.75 (512 Mib) with 3 APs. It seems to be working fine with 30 XO-1s connected via different AP. Registration went well, ejabberdctl displayed registered users, moodle work, backup work. So I am a happy end-user waiting to see it deployed in the wild soon!
