<br><br>In the last couple of days I have wrapped up the new antitheft feature<br>
work that is coming to the XS.<br>
<br>
The most visible changes appear in the 'xs-activation' package, which<br>
acts in concert with olpc-bios-crypto and moodle-xs. I have written up<br>
documentation on how to use it in<br>
<br>

<br>
It is far from perfect. Some help editing would be welcome. Commit<br>
messages are also a good source of info on how it works.<br>
<br>
To make it all work, the XO side needs some changes in olpcrd-rootskel<br>
and olpc-update. I have published my patches in the appropriate<br>
repositories; all that is needed is a build engineer on the XO OS side<br>
to build a new olpcrd (tricky) and add the new olpc-update to the<br>
build (easy?).<br>
<br>
cheers,<br>
<br>
