[OLPC-SF] SF-Repair Center

[jim]

   sign me up (starting next week at the earliest, 
we've got heavy thanksgiving week family stuff, 
including refinishing floors). 

   i can probably, like doctors, do no harm and 
maybe help out. 
   i am interested not only in the hardware aspect 
but the software aspect. i'm not satisfied by the 
online help i've found and would like to nail the 
problems of upgrades of OS and activities. 
   i'd also be interested in understanding how to 
use some activities, how to discover homebrewed 
activities in the field, and extended use cases. 
   i'm good at documenting and happy to share. 
research is often a <BADWORD> and in this area i 
hope for help.
