Three new administrators were created on the wiki, Adam Holt, Kim Quirk, Chih-yu Chao, as well as Katie.

Main Page Redesign

Katie made massive structural changes to our Main Page over the course of 18 hours (making an edit about every 20 minutes or so), it no longer makes people's eyes bleed with ugliness.

General improvements

  • Free like GNU wrote a guide on how to use XFCE on the XO.
  • FFM wrote a Update paths page that combined the olpc-update pages and Activated upgrade pages into one big page, while keeping the pages synced with one another. (Disclosure: This article was primarily authored by FFM)
  • MChua started Repair_centers, information about community based repair centers, and momentum is gathering quickly with support behind the idea.

Other news

The OLPC wiki was added to the interwiki map on the MetaWikiPedia, and will soon be able to be linked to using [[OLPC:ArticleName]] on all WikiMedia sites. Soon, Sj will add wikipedia: to the OLPC's interwiki map.
