There have been a lot of recent requests for XO loaners in the Boston 
area, with local deployments starting up.

There is interest in running a general Boston OLPC community XO pool. 
This pool will have a publicly stated maintainer and process for 
contributor applications (longer-term loans) as well as short-term loans 
for events (such as MassCUE). Precedents: Jerome & the group in the 
Philippines are doing a similar XO pool.

Is there interest in utilizing (so we can predict demand) or helping to 
run/maintain such a pool? (Several groups and individuals have already 
come forward). Please post responses to this mailing list.

Thanks!

-Seth and Mel
