[Server-devel] [XSCE] Internet-in-a-Box special guests (10AM NYC Time, Thursday July 10)

[James Cameron]

I can't make that unholy time, sorry.

You haven't mentioned, but you probably should, that OLPC has released
13.2.1 with improved wireless drivers, and improved support for
Internet-in-a-Box and other collections such as the Khan Academy on
Raspberry Pi (KA-Pi).
