<div dir="ltr">Thanks, Ksenia. (Ксения?) You can talk to me, as Program Manager for Replacing Textbooks at Sugar Labs. We can discuss formats, authoring tools, licenses, and so on.<br><br>How are you making your materials interactive?<br>

</font></div></div><div><font face="arial">Hi,</font></div><div><font face="arial"><br></font></div><div><font face="arial">I'm not sure what format you can or will like to donate. OLPC XO's have a activity to read PDF files. This would enable you to provide B/W or Color PDFs of an illustrated book. The prefered license for OLPC is a Copyleft license: GPL, Creative Commons or similar as it allows OLPC and its students to use the book in their other works. </font></div>
<div><font face="arial"><br></font></div><div><font face="arial">If you want to make it interactive, one option is using ETOYS to create it. The OLPC browser also supports HTML5. Some XO have
FLASH but this is more problematic for OLPC as it is proprietary and many of the XO-1, XO-1.75 and XO-4 units may not be able to use this. If you want to create a Python-based interactive book activity for your book(s), that would be an excellent way to promote your and others books on the XO. Sugar Labs may be the best source to help with that.</font></div>
