Week of June 16 - June 20

I've spent all week fixing up various problems with the Fedora 9 (OLPC-3) stream:

Worked on olpc3 problems: no USB automount (#7289), can't reboot/shutdown (#7266), sound nodes not accessible to olpc user (#7302). Turns out all of these are caused by changes to the way that the HAL/PolicyKit/ConsoleKit stack works.
Figured out the olpc3 OV7670 (camera driver) occasional crash-on-boot bug (#7252), waiting for Jon Corbet to attempt a proper fix before I suggest that we revert to the previous state of the driver.
Integrated olpc-dm with ConsoleKit connector so that olpc-dm registers a session in hope that ConsoleKit can track it. However, architectural problems with olpc-dm prevent this from working properly at this stage.
Fixed olpc3 problem with lack of presence functionality (#7319)
Worked on restoring camera functionality in olpc3 (#7294)

Started my internship on the 11th.
Worked with Ankur and Chris Carrick to learn how to install the school server, and demonstrated it to the grassroots group
Worked on a weird sudo message in OLPC-3 (#7267) as an introduction to RPM devel/handling
Worked on NetworkManager OLPC-3 problems (#7271) which was non-functional
attacked olpc-3 keyboard problems (#5952)
attending grassroots jam in NY this weekend
