Topics that need to be considered in detail in any deployment include:

  1. Consultation
  2. Core Team

Each of these topics is expanded upon in this wiki. Also in the wiki are: (I) some tips based upon our experience in trial deployments around the world; (II) a deployment checklist; (III) a sample deployment deployment schedule; (IV) a sample workshop schedule; (V) a glossary of terms; (VI) a worksheet for planning deployment needs on an individual school basis; and (VII) a guide to imaging, activating, and registering laptops.

A workbook for estimating deployment power consumption and expenses is available, along with the presentations and materials from the Deployment planning workshops held at OLPC's Boston, MA headquarters for visitors who come in to plan their large country-wide rollouts.
