Hello everybody,
My name is Gabriel and I am writing a short note to introduce myself. I
am
currently working at the Harvard Initiative for Global Health and
recently
started translating some OLPC content to Spanish. I am very interested
in
health content, having a long history in the medical publishing field.
Please let me know if you need help in generating/identifying health
content
for the XO. I'm very willing to help.

Best wishes,

Gabriel Caro

Coincidentally,
  I just stumbled on this site...  which has free health texts online..
in
both English and Spanish... ! ! !

 http://www.hesperian.org/publications_download.php

I wonder if we could convince them to allow usage on the XO ?  Add the
info
to a Health Library package ?

Looks like they are in the need of help to translate some of their
recent
texts . . . too.  :)

Have already done this...Hesperian is on-board. You might want to look
for other groups.
We'll check where the communication got fouled up.
