[OLPC library] OLPC-health

[Seth Woodworth]

I've looked at Scribus.  And it's very beta still. It has some potential to
be great software eventually, but it is nowhere near InDesign.  And it can't
read the source files at all.  I will likely be using Scribus for the
printed XO manual later on this month, so I hope it isn't as bad as it
seems. :S

I've been working on restructuring the [[Health]] pages on the wiki and I'm
working my way into restructuring the participate and volunteering pages in
general.  If we really want people to get involved, we need to better
document what you're doing, what the work flow would be, what skills are
required, and get the word out there.

Volunteer coordination is hard, but worth it. :)
