Is this a job for Drupal?

Beyond Drupal-on-XO as a hack, here's a possible application:

Teachers in Uruguay want children to write, collaborate before "final" publication, then publish to a larger audience. Here's a "features wanted" call that went out to the OLPC Library mailing list:

I'm just getting started with a Drupal project at my university, but the possibility of creating a meshed-staging-server/public-server combination sounds like it might fit the bill. Would it make sense to do part of that with Drupal on the XOs, or create a slimmed-down XO version using their mesh, combined with an upload path to a public server?

What do you Drupal wizards think? Especially Spanish-speaking Drupal wizards... since the project should be documented in Spanish for the teachers and students in Uruguay.

It does sound like fun having drupal on the XO! But I don't get the real advantages of using drupal locally instead of perhaps having it on the school server. If mesh collaboration could work, then I do, but I think it is a long way from here, isn't it ?Marcel

XO or XS?

Hi Guys,

Did you install this on a stock XO or on a server?

Thanks,
