Congrats Jon !

A new XSCE-on-Cubox contributor recruited himself yesterday @
soCalLinuxExpo.org here in LA, so that makes 4 active testers/contributors
I know about, and hopefully more soon (*).

Even if physical packaging for the developing world remains a struggle,
exactly as you predicted last year --- around TeraByte drive integration,
solar battery monitor, UPS, etc --- where George Hunt continues to pave the
way, very inspiringly...

(*) think about what documentation volunteers should post @ schoolserver.organd
schoolserver.wordpress.com etc to make life more meaningful to new
contributors.
