We showed off XOs at Cebit, we currently work on http://projectdb.olpc.at, Simon will start to work on content issues, Helga created a super- tres-cool XO bag (http://www.olpcaustria.org/mediawiki/index.php/Hansel_%26_Gretel), Christoph and Simon were in Slovenia and presented the XOs in front of quite a few ministries from Africa at the ACP-EU meeting), Chris Hager is coding a lot in python (xo-get, projectdb, physics software, imageQuiz), Andreas is working with XOs at a school, Tano and me are organizing a lot and doing blabla, etc... the list does not end. > • What is your logistic ? ?? OLPC has logistics in the EU? ;-)

> • Do you have help from OLPC Foundation in US ? well, we help them and they help us sometimes a bit. But mostly it is about trying out cool new things.

They are pretty cool guys, maybe you want to meet once and see if you like each other and if you can work together. Tell them greetings from me and I miss their great humor and drinking habbits ;-)

a+, Aaron.
