Welcome to the One Laptop per Child wiki. Please make yourself at home; read through the [[Table of Contents]] and [[OLPC FAQ|FAQ]], and take a look around. If you need a general wiki-tutorial, [http://www.wikieducator.org/Wikieducator_tutorial Wikieducator has some excellent ones].

Some possible pages of interest:
* [[Pictures]]
* [[Ask OLPC a Question]]
* [[OS images for emulation]]
* [[Rollout and community building ideas]]

Check your [[Special:Preferences|preferences]] and be sure you verify your email address and turn on email notification if you'd like it -- you can find out when your talk page, or any page on your [[Special:Watchlist|watchlist]], is modified. You may want to upload a photo or information about yourself to your userpage (examples: [[User:Lauren|1]], [[User:Xavi|2]]).

Some open tasks:

Feel free to leave me a note on my [[User talk:Sj|talk page]] if you have further questions or need help finding your way around.

Cheers, [[User:Sj|Sj]]

Do you have a trac account? People are starting to file some [[talk:wiki|skin bugs]] there as well, and we can assign them to you if you're planning in maintaining the skin. [[User:Sj|Sj]] [[User talk:Sj|<font color="fc9"><small>talk</small></font>]] 21:44, 2 August 2007 (EDT)

My account name on dev.laptop.org is "simon". Yeah, just assign #2648 or any other skin related bugs to me. I'll look into it! --[[User:Simon|Simon]] 06:52, 3 August 2007 (EDT)
