Hi Sebastian,

Gillard for uploading the file):

Please verify the md5sum once you have downloaded the file.

About your question on dev environment I am ccing Santi and Miguel who can
answer it best. It may depend on what part of the server you want to
contribute to, but I think you should mostly be able to get away with just
a VM image. I don't believe anyone has tried a chroot env (though I could
be wrong) but it _might_ be possible.

Also, for testing with real clients (like xo laptops) you are probably
going to need something for the LAN side (an access point). There are a few
permutations here, but I will step back and let more the technical experts
converse :-)

Cheers,
Anish
