FLOSSManuals

From OLPC
Jump to navigation Jump to search

The OLPC Wiki is a great medium, but it isn't (and shouldn't) be the source for authoritative documentation.

To fill that need, OLPC has partnered with FLOSSManuals to provide a stable, standalone documentation source. See Manuals for some of the manuals produced with FLOSSManuals, including the content in Help (activity).
