Hi everyone.<div><br></div><div>We, the computer science division of the high energy physics group(<font color="#3366ff">link</font>), are in charge of the development of the OLPC project in Itagüí, Antioquia in Colombia.</div>
<div>Right now 17000 XOs had been bought but only 5000 are going to arrive soon for testing pourposes.</div><div>Our jobs in the project are basically to implement the technical aspect of the OLPC project in Itagüí and make research and development in IT for XO and servers OS.</div>
<div><br></div><div> </div><div>Reuben:</div><div>We are aware of your visit through a meeting that we held with Alejandro Caro, the subsecretary of educational quality of Itagüí.</div><div>UNE(an energy and telecominications company) has set up the networking structure for each school according to OLPC's criteria stablished during your visit.</div>
<div>That is where a question arise: they have used 2 Dlink AP3200 for a population of approximatelly 1000 children per school... we think that's not appropiate, what do you think?</div><div><br></div><div>About the site surveys... we're not at that point yet, we're just planning how to do everything right. Our only drawback is that UNE has done some things and we don't know how suitable they are.</div>
<div>So, we're going to be in contact frequently trying to solve any issue with your help. </div><div>What software do you recommend for the heat maps?</div><div><br></div><div>We're planning to implement also a CRM system for a contact center and inventory, and we've found sugarcrm a good free software option... what do you think? or do you recommend another software?</div>
<div><br></div><div>Thanks to everyone for your help.</div><div><br></div><div><br><br><div class="gmail_quote">

<br>En nuestra implementacion usamos<b> IBM System X3200 M3</b> y no hemos tenido problemas de rendimiento; lo que si deberias tener en cuenta es la capacidad de almacenamiento del XS para los backup de las XO. Si van a usar todas las features del XS te recomendaria como minimo 1TB de almacenamiento.<br>
Con respecto a los AP seria muy util y practico usar AP que soporten PoE. Nosotros usamos la version anterior de <b>3Com A-WA2110 Single Radio 802.11a/b/g Access Point (JD446B)</b><br><br>Saludos!<br><br><br><br>Guillermo Narvaez<br>
