Hi,

Is a list of features that would enable OLPC adoption in India available
? I do realise that the overall technical specifications for the OLPC
effort will not (and should not) vary from country to country. What
would however be of interest are features pertaining to:

* activities
* input methods/keyboard layouts
* localisation
* contribution encouragement
* how to be part of an OLPC deployment (initial set of "dipstick"
questions etc)

Having something that includes the above publicly ensures that the level
of expectation and interest created is sustained and awareness about
OLPC is an accurate. Thus for example, one could say that "initially
OLPC in India will have Devnagari enabled but not Bengali in terms of
complete support". (That was an example statement and not an actual one)
which would allow potential deployments to assess as to what to expect.
