Good idea. I think should work by inclusion. If it doesn't work, try making the Glossary a subpage like the others and then use a redirect from the original. --[[User:Walter|Walter]] 19:06, 31 March 2008 (EDT) |

Revision as of 02:11, 1 April 2008
I wonder where I can see the stages of XO deployment all in one place. What I mean is, Where did they go first, and how many? How many countries now, and how many kids own them?
- Some day I will find the time to update the map... Uruguay has been rolling out in rural communities since last November; Peru is just starting—with a target of reaching 6000 one-room school houses in the most rural regions by Q3 2008; Mexico is just gearing up, as is Mongolia, Haiti, etc. --Walter 12:02, 21 March 2008 (EDT)
- Walter, I believe that you need to hire some staff. We have been getting conflicting stories about the Mexican purchase and deployment. Where is the straight story on this Wiki? How many units, on what schedule?--Mokurai 20:21, 24 March 2008 (EDT)
- Not sure how staffing and rumor control are correlated. 50K laptops to Mexico; deployment starts soon. --Walter 20:44, 24 March 2008 (EDT)

A Spanish version of the deployment guide would be very useful. There was a question about buying laptops from an NGO in Argentina.

FYI, we are trying to work out a related algorithm for deployment decisions, mostly related to infrastructure and the school server.
Preliminary ideas are posted at:

This is clearly intended to be read sequentially, so I'm going to add Next Section links at the bottom of each sub-page to improve read-through navigation. This will work for every page but Glossary, so I'll leave that one out. Cjl 20:49, 26 March 2008 (EDT)
- It would work for Glossary if I made a Deployment Guide/Glossary page with Deployment Guide header and footer with the body of Glossary as a transcluded page. I'll put an example of this at Deployment Guide/Glossary/temp to test the transclusion formatting. I have not linked it into the navigation yet. Cjl 19:04, 31 March 2008 (EDT)
