[OLPC library] paradigm shift and OLPC

[kalyan97]

Dear Samuel Klein,

I have gone through the http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Content_bundles

Please do add it to the content bundle.

I request you or authorise any of the laptop administration/technical group
to kindly arrange to prepare the bundle of the lexicon and reach it to the
children.

Thanking you for your consideration and with the best wishes,

Kalyanaraman

"Rama, Lakshmana and Sita are truer to Indians than even their own family
members. ... If we can cherish and nurture the ideals of brotherly love,
truthfulness, chastity and loyalty described in the Epic, then our homes and
work-places would remain freshened by zephyrs from the great sea"
--Rabindranath Tagore
