Background

OLPC is an education project for children, building tools for stimulating children's creativity, starting with a children's laptop, a child-friendly desktop interface, and communities of learning and creation dedicated to children's education around the world.

Who works on OLPC?

Designers, hardware manufacturers, firmware developers (Men Of FORTH), Linux kernel and systems developers, activity developers (esp python, javascript, actionscript, C), database and interface designers, localization fanatics, game developers, authors, translators, artists, musicians, media encoding experts...


Where does everyone hang out?

Developers primarily hang out on a few IRC channels : #sugar for activity and interface development, #olpc for general discussion and OS/kernel hacking, #olpc-content for content and library development and localization.

Community members have a few other channels : #olpc-es for spanish-language discussion, and low-traffic channels for specific pilots and countries (peru, brasil).
