== Hauptteil ==
Unabhängig von der völlig unerheblichen Frage, ob der OLPC nun für Österreich geeignet ist (er ist es, definitionsgemäß, eben NICHT) sollte sich der Fokus östrereichischen Interesses auf die Entwicklung kindgerechter OLPC- Lerninhalte '''über''' Österreich ausrichten. Wer es immer noch nicht begriffen hat: die Welt wächst zusammen und über OLPC werden sich hunderte Millionen Kinder bald über www ein Bild von Österreich machen. Hier gilt es strategisch zu intervenieren. Das ist eine Aufforderung an die österreichische Politik bzw. der von ihnen geführten Bildungsinstitutionen. Frau Bildungsministerin, Herr Forschungsminister an die www-Front, bitte!
