Please please don't let this image last any longer - Sebastien has new
ones that are quite close to be ready for testing.  Let's bug him for
those.

Sebastien, can we have another build of devxo?  Are you waiting on me?

These big issues you mention have been addressed.

Right now most feedback on F11-for-XO1 is applicable for SoaS-XO1, and
vice-versa.  So go for whatever you can get :).

Interesting - I hadn't seen this wake -> dim -> wake cycling, even
when connected to jabber.sugarlabs.org.  Perhaps this is an old issue
now addressed (cross fingers).

Yup - some F11 tickets have been mentioned on this list in the past
few days that are applicable (in particular, the camera issue).
