[OLPC-Philippines] testing builds towards 8.2.0

[Mel Chua]

Thanks, Jerome!

An important note is that we've got about a day to do this, since 
release of 8.2.0 is literally impending - so if you want to jump in, 
we're on #olpc and #olpc-ph (the first has much more traffic).

'Course, there'll be plenty of testing to do after the release as well, 
as we work towards 9.1. ;-)
