; Ship.1 is build 623, and was preloaded on all mass production XO machines for a while.
: It isn't preloaded on new machines, and any machine with it installed should since have been updated to Ship.2. It was released around 2007-11-01. It will mostly not be seen by the outside world at all.

; Ship.2 is [http://download.laptop.org/xo-1/os/official/650/ build 650]
: It is the build received by [[Give One Get One]] recipients, as well as the [[OLPC Uruguay|Uruguay Ceibal project]] users. (Actually, Uruguay is using a slightly custom build, but it's based on Ship.2.) It was released around 2007-12-01. Read the [[OLPC Ship.2 Software Release Notes]].

; OLPC 8.1.0 (Update.1) is [http://download.laptop.org/xo-1/os/official/703/ build 703]
: [[OLPC SW-ECO 4]] - This release contains no activities, and is suitable for a base image to be customized by deploying countries using a [[Customization key]]. [[OLPC Update.1 Software Release Notes|Release notes]] are available. Machines can be automatically [[olpc-update|upgraded]] (preserving user data) from Ship.2 to 8.1.0, although '''activities need to be reinstalled''' as they are no longer contained in the image - see the release notes.

; OLPC 8.1.1 will be released in June 2008 as a minor update to 8.1.0. The current release candidate is [http://download.laptop.org/xo-1/os/candidate/708/ build 708].
: [[OLPC SW-ECO 5]] - [[OLPC 8.1.1 Software Release Notes|Release notes]] are available.

; OLPC [[8.2.0]] is planned to be released in August 2008, current [[Joyride]] builds are progress towards it.
: (No ECO yet)

; [[Joyride]] builds are available at http://xs-dev.laptop.org/~cscott/olpc/streams/joyride/
: "Joyride" can be thought of as synonymous with "trunk" or "HEAD" or "unstable", much like the Debian/unstable distribution.
