Hi Rafael,<br>
<br>
That's great news about Colombia! I didn't see anything on the Colombia list but I may have missed it. Is this the Boyaca deployment?<br>
</blockquote><div><br>This is not disclosed yet in Colombia due to i have not an official permit to do so yet :) .<br>But it is not the boyaca deployment. (more details later)<br><br>Let me know if you need more local contacts or support. I have a few technically inclined nephews in Bogotá and know a Colombian programmer/architect in Boston who may chip in....<br>

<br>
In the run up to Nepal deployment I extracted some discussion from the list to create two pages on server requirements and development.<br>
<br>
This one shows all the main ideas we kicked around in the early going:<br>
<a href="http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Nepal:School_Server_Specification" target="_blank">http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Nepal:School_Server_Specification</a><br>
<br>
This one shows a more limited and focused implementation intended to get the system up ASAP:<br>
<a href="http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Nepal:School_Server_Specification_-_Phase_1_Design" target="_blank">http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Nepal:School_Server_Specification_-_Phase_1_Design</a><br>
<br>
I added Bryan's diff file in barely human readable format to the second. Ping him for the .txt version if you want it.<br>
<br>
Those pages are about a month out of date. There is a new XS image which Wad sent you and Bryan has the details on what they will really deploy. Use my server pages for an intro to some decisions you want to consider and let me know if you have any questions.<br>
<br>
One piece of advice is to figure out how much BW and power you will have in the schools ASAP. Also, nail down the Server HW (CPU, RAM and disk) and Access Point options early. Those points drive a lot of other sw and design decisions later.<br>
<br>
Estoy a tu servicio en qualquier cosa para Colombia. Avisame como puedo ayudar!<br>
<br>
Gracias<br>
</blockquote><div><br>Thanks for your help offer i'll contact you if it is needed, we are still making the planning so there is not a concrete plan yet but all of this information it's going to be very useful for the deployment.<br>
<br>Gracias por todo greg, y estaremos en contacto, mas informacion proximamente en la lista de correo de Colombia.<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">
