This IIAB XSCE content does not reflect the opinion of OLPC. These pages were created by members of a volunteer community supporting OLPC and deployments.

XSCE 6.1 was released September 22, 2016, building off XSCE 6.0 while adding major advances such as Sugarizer (Learning UX), Calibre-server (ebook library), and Moodle (LMS, or learning management system).

Please see the Release Notes, and evolving FAQ for more general questions.

XSCE 6.1 will most likely be followed by XSCE 6.2 sometime in early 2017. The latest stable release should always be available at: https://github.com/XSCE/xsce/releases/latest

Our target is an every-6-month release cycle, that began with XSCE 6.0 in March 2016. Please join our weekly "Thursday" calls to help push forward XSCE 6.2 and beyond:
