[OLPC library] [Announce] FBReader 3

[Samuel Klein]

We are getting closer to having a larger pool of latin-1 epubs to test
on, from which we can make broader unit tests.  Update on that this
time next week.

I'm recommending this for use on the offline-resources DVD going out
to the OLPCorps teams this summer.
