<hilary> The OLPC project is a live and well. One project lead by a member of the OLPC-SF group is in Ethiopia with the new laptop (modified chromebook) XO NL3 but they are held up in customs. Another in the honduras where the laptops where just handed to the kids with no instruction and they figured it out on their own. The software is now independent of the hardware <www.sugarizer.org>. We should submit a challenge to the upcoming hackathon (doesn't have to be OLPC associated):

Talking about various things we cold pitch to the hacakathon:

  • <juul> disaster.radio simulator
  • <grant> spanning tree visualizer? not sure i have time to write it up

<lesley-remote> not sure which visualizer you're talking about...probably not the network visualizer thing. I had looked at that a bit, would still like to do it if will or someone else doesn't beat me to it <juul> are you talking about the map? or something else? <lesley> for node-monitor. so probably something else

<hilary> OLPC has a libary software called Pathagar - but there is a problem which will be fixed by using Snap. This will be one of the challenges.

<lesley> also, solar panels have arrived, and max is back in town. solar-repeaters coming up!

<juul> cool!
