As the current maintainer of the "F11 for the XO-1" releases,  I would be 
interested in hearing more about the XO SIG and how the work I am doing can 
benefit the SIG and how the SIG can benefit the work I am doing.  Especially in 
regards to testing.

The original goal of the project was to keep up with the work being done for 
the XO-1.5.  It is important that the 2 releases stay in sync to present a 
consistent experience to the users.  To that end I try and do frequent 
releases, and in fact one is due out this week.
  
I am open to anything that will help both OLPC and Sugar in the hands of more 
users.  

Feel free to contact me off or on list.

Steven
