Why the question mark behind "There is a mailinglist: (to be created soon?" We should be bold about this, shouldn't we?


Could you provide a little more info on how to get up and running? I am familiar with Squeak and eToys, and have the current Squeak VM installed (for Windows). When I tried the OLPCPlugin-960.image it wouldn't run. Is there a specific VM for this image? If so, where do we get it? Are there OLPC VMs for Windows, Mac and Linux, or just for Linux. I looked at the files on tinlizzie.org and downloaded 4 of them, but there is no Readme file to tell what to use.

I understand that Tinlizzie is both: 1 TinLizzie" is a WYSIWYG wiki that implements Etoys using a special document format." 2 "TinLizzie is essentially a re-engineering of important parts of the Etoy environment to try to put together a more efficient and accessible architecture for the $100 laptop project..." Is this correct?

I look forward to creating some useful eToys for the OLPC project. --User:DaveRaftery
