<div><font color="#3333ff">It is called OLPC India list for a reason. It has one focus..India.. I would appreciate if any message posted on this list is polite and respectful and geared towards achieving the goals of OLPC India. We will come to sharing deployment experiences when there is a deployment. From your response you sound like a bright, young techie who may benefit greatly from learning about collaboration.. </font><br>

<div><font color="#3333ff">Everyone on this list has been very pro-active and has greatly contributed to the evolution of OLPC and, though I am new here, I am aware of that and greatly appreciate it. However, we have to redfine the meaning of this list and I sincerely hope you would like to be on the same page. The fact is that all the help given by everyone on this list in the past has not contributed to the spread of OLPC. So we need to re-orient this group and get help of the kind that is needed. It will be helpful to know what you know and help when called upon to do so or volunteer when you can and let the organization see how that can be put to effective use.</font></div>

<div><font color="#3333ff">I would measure our success in rolling OLPC out and I believe so far we have not had any effective demand for OLPC in the region. This listsev is about helping that process as much as it is about undersatnding some of the technical issues that may crop up.</font></div>
<div><font color="#3333ff"></font> </div>
<div><font color="#3333ff">Then again, technical issues are more likely to be common across the globe. However, the issues of outreach, getting governments to support it, corporations to come forward and pay for it are likely to be more specific to regions though there may be some lessons that will be valuable to share.</font></div>
<div><font color="#3333ff"></font> </div>
<div><font color="#3333ff">Most of all, however, its important that we remain focused and discuss responsibly.</font><font color="#000000"> </font><br> _______________________________________________<br> India mailing list<br>
