Greg, thanks for taking this project on.

I am David Farning, most places known as dfarning.  I originally became
involved in OLPC when I got my niece, a fifth grader, an XO for
Christmas last year.

It has started her on a fascinating journey of discovery.  She has
become active on wikipedia.  As she struggled to get flash working, she
became familiar with the command line.  Last week I saw her ping
google.com when the network connection on her parent's computer went
down:)

My personal interest is developing a community around the Sugar Learning
Environment.  In the short term, I will be working on engaging the
distributions and increasing Sugar's profile in Open Source Education
groups.

Thanks
dfarning
