[OLPC library] Fw: Get involved - Measure Activity on the XO

[Arjun Sarwal]

Ray,

Thanks for your email,

As I see it I wasn't on cc on your reply so I am only seeing your
message now when I am reading the mailing lists email, sorry for that.

As a start I've put together this page (still needs more work) that
details on the Measure Activity what it is...etc
http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Measure

And the code work in progress is here
http://dev.laptop.org/git?p=projects/measure;a=tree;f=measure_stable;h=561325f7dc5e3ebdbe537bce54d062782e303cd9;hb=HEAD

The last release was made from here
http://dev.laptop.org/git?p=projects/measure;a=tree;f=measure_stable;h=be7ff4b83e543ab228eb62401bbd7a1a19215bfb;hb=854b9ef766670ea036554a46a0a7b21bd2eeb967

Some things I am aiming for the next release are here --

Please feel free to let me know what you think would be other useful
additions to Measure.

I get a little free 17th May onwards and I will  continue to spend a
few cycles on taking forward the work then, but in the meanwhile I'd
be glad to answer any questions you may have.

regards
Arjun
