Hey All,
Just thought I would post this reference for Fedora being the base for
OLPC.
http://linuxhelp.blogspot.com/2007/11/olpc-makes-its-entry-into-india-finally.html
When the OLPC first made news, a prominent official in the HRD ministry
of the Indian government had gone on record snubbing the OLPC project
($100 laptop), even making a preposterous claim that work was under way
to create India's own $10 laptop. But as things have worked out, OLPC
has already made an entry into India in the form of a pilot project in a
rural primary school in a village in the state of Maharasthra.
Cheers,
Marc
