==== [[Special:Log|Maintenance]] ====
3 pages were [{{fullurl:Special:Log|type=move}} moved]: [[Kuku Activity Test Plan]], [[Gnu General Public License]] & [[OLPC wikis]]
8 pages were [{{fullurl:Special:Log|type=delete}} deleted], mostly containing friendly (but out of place) messages.
9 IPs were [{{fullurl:Special:Log|type=block}} blocked] during the past week. All indicates that they are bots. We should expect a new
round of these kind of editions after the previous 2 week banning period is ending, so we should consider
an ''upgrading'' the blocking period to 3 months (hopefully after that time some of the zombie machines
will have been reformatted).

=== xoxo #1 ===
Welcome to the first edition of xoxo, a regular textfile of exciting things happening around the OLPC
projects, with summaries of the various community fora. We are currently looking for editors and
summarizers (specifically for mailing lists and blogs). Anyone is welcome to contribute by posting
new items to these talk pages.

=== bug tracking and fixing ===
Please note any bugs or enhancements or feature requests in trac: dev.laptop.org . Anyone is welcome to
make an account there and file bugs or ideas.
New wiki template {{tl|ticket}} allowing a short way to reference tickets: {{ticket|1}}.

=== game and curriculum jams ===
[[User:mchua|mchua]] has been working on plans for [[Game Jams|game]] and other [[Curriculum Jams|content jams]]
this fall in a number of cities. Current jams being planned based on where there are interested organizers
(Manila, New York, Sao Paulo), feedback or new cities welcome.

=== laptop map ===
name.com has been thinking about how to visualize OLPC data and machines, and how to help laptop communities.
they've made a google mashup, which can be installed on this wiki via a mediawiki extension : laptop.name.org

=== [[OBX proposals]] ===
After an [[IRC]] chat, some proposals were added. The idea is that each box categorizes on orthogonal
axis, on one side users can tag themselves as ''Artists'' (a category) with a specialty (say ''Artists
icons'' &mdash; another category) and then on the 'consumer' side, activities (or whatever) could tag as
''Needing/Wanting icon''. The categories would have cross-links allowing us to better match things.
The idea is to expand to other domains.

=== [[Special:Recentchanges|Recent Changes]] ===
This is an experimental report on the [[Special:Recentchanges]] for the week ending July 8.
Suggestions (and scripting help) are welcome: contact [[User:Xavi|Xavi]].

11 pages were [{{fullurl:Special:Log|type=delete}} deleted], mostly containing spam.
37 IPs were [{{fullurl:Special:Log|type=block}} blocked] during the past week. All indicates that they are bots. We should expect a
new round of these kind of editions after the previous 2 week banning period is ending, so we
should consider an upgrading the blocking period to 3 months (hopefully after that time some of
the zombie machines will have been reformatted).
We did have some patterns that may allow some kind of smarter blocking:
200.83.4.3 / 200.83.4.4 / 200.83.4.5 / 200.83.4.6
203.162.27.90 / 203.162.27.93
3 pages were [{{fullurl:Special:Log|type=protected}} protected] &mdash; basically dealing with [[Point-of-view gun]] used to try to stop editions in
pages not supposed to exist in the wiki but are frequently created for spamming purposes.

as the code freeze deadline draws near (it's now a few hours away),
developers break into spontaneous fits of poetry on #olpc-content (read the original [http://www.ketzle.com/frost/snowyeve.htm poem] first)
The night is calling me to sleep,
but gtk, it made me weep.
I've files to code before I sleep.
And tubes to code before they're neat.

there are opportunities to help clean up the wiki! beefing up the [[style guide]],
improving [[special:recentchanges]] and other system messages (eg [[MediaWiki:Noarticletext]]),
revisiting categorization, and integrating sister wikis (olpcaustria, wikieducator).
come by #olpc-content and talk with [[User:MitchellNCharity|mitchellncharity]], [[User:mchua|mchua]], [[User:xavi|xavi]], and [[User:sj|sj]].
advice, and comments in general, are welcome.

wiki blocking: you can block IP ranges with, e.g.,
200.83.4.6/28 (to mask the last 32-28 = 4 bits, so you block 16 addresses) or
203.162.27.90/30 (to mask 32-30=2 bits, blocking 2 addresses)
please be '''very careful''' blocking ranges or IPs for that matter, particularly given
nature of dynamic IPs; don't block ranges for nearly as long as you would a single user,
and try to avoid any blocks of longer than a week. [That said, blocked users can see
the email of the blocking admin, so you may get email from people unfairly blocked]
See [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Blocking_IP_addresses Wikipedia's approach] to understand the [http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/technology/6224677.stm possible results] of blocking.

Content jams : [[user:mackiwg]] & the commonwealth of learning agreed to co-run a pilot
[[Summer of Content 2007]] season with OLPC. final comments welcome on the proposed process

Cambridge Brewing Company : groups from OLPC regularly close them out; festivities followed by
wine & dancing earlier this wek. who knew there were so many dancers in the office?
Bernie managed to demo screencaps while dancing.

A first round of templating and clarifying content sources for regular content
releases produced a page of notes on [[content packages]]. this will be
revisited next week.

the startpage on the XO browser now has [[Localization/Library|a spanish interface]] and
loads a main page that can search Google and links directly to the [[Activity Grid]] for
downloading new activities.

There is a new [[Stopwatch]] activity. Hopefully I'll have a chance to tubify it before T-2 freeze.
If anyone needs (poorly working) drag-around-able pygtk widgets, it has one. Help welcome. :)

=== [[Activity Grid|grids]] ===
There are now an [[activity grid]] and a [[library grid]] for code and content bundles available to
download. The mime-type scripting for the xo browser that tells it what to do with <tt>.xol</tt>
bundles still needs to be written


=== Mailing lists ===
== Invitation to participate ==
Those of you who are already forming your own groups, please feel free to
The number of mailing lists, and of quiet lists, has been growing. We are making an effort to unify
write about what you are doing on the current talk page there:
lists, and to summarize them. If you are interested in summarizing a list, contact [[user:sj|sj]].
http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Talk:xoxo
We could use interested people who have time to summarize what's going on
in the world of OLPC each week
- irc chans*,
- mailing lists*,
- the blogosphere and media**,
- updates from trial schools via their own blogs**


* mainly english so far, but other languages are growing
=== Summer of Content ===
** in various languages
A proper [[Summer of Content 2007]] project was put up last week, and is accepting new project ideas
and mentor orgs. Please read more about it there and pass it on.


== Participants==
=== [[Special:Recentchanges]] more stats ===
Please add your name here if you are interested in editing, translating, illustrating, or otherwise contributing to the news.
Extracting useful data or numbers from [[Special:Recentchanges]] besides being expensive in time and effort,
and not particularly insightful of what is actually going on in the [[wiki]]. So we're starting a new approach,
basically snapshoting some [[Special:Specialpages]] between two dates and extracting info.

==== Popular pages being viewed by visitors ====

There's a nice [[Special:Popularpages]], with one big defect: it only shows the 'absolute' views, so old and
semi-popular pages will always outrank new-and-hot. Solution? Take two snapshots and compare:

==== What to read? ====
Page editions by themselves don't mean that new content is available, sometimes it's just a small typo
being fixed that doesn't add new concepts (although it greatly enhances value of the page and is
appreciated). As a rule of thumb applied here (obviously wrong) is the change in size: more new bytes
would mean more to read:
(Note: given the amount of bytes added in the [[XO Korea]] section this has been split below).
