Weely'zine

The Weekly zine started from OLPC 'support-gang' germinating ideas from irc and the mailing list. Several volunteers stated it would be great to have an overview or summary view of all the activity going on around OLPC. A weekly Wiki newsletter was already started by ixo (Iain), and the ideas soon sprouted from there. More volunteers started offering assistance and ideas.

Original core group, of which, Weekly zine would not be possible:
