== Recursing participation == |
|||
Josh Gay recently gave a great talk at the [[Grassroots_bootcamp|grassroots bootcamp]] about [[Grassroots_bootcamp/Results/wednesday_transcript#Josh_Gay_on_designing_for_participation|on designing for participation in communities]], in which he described how to make participant gathering recursive. We should include on this wiki page and in all form emails an action step of "Have any friends with G1G1 or developer XOs? Forward them this (wiki page, email, etc)." |
|||
I've added that to the wiki page. |

== Remembering the Goal == |
|||
Please keep in mind that the goal of this testing is to determine if the software on the XO is complete and flexible enough to connect to a wide variety of wireless access points, or alternately, to gather information on the range of wireless access points to which the XO cannot easily connect. |
|||
The end user may not have the option to modify the configuration of a given wireless access point, may not be the owner of a particular wireless access point, and may not even know the model or brand details. |
|||
As a standard for declaring test success or failure, I'd cite the OLPC Connecting guide: |
|||
http://laptop.org/en/laptop/start/connecting.shtml |
|||
If it's possible to connect to a wireless access point with a certain configuration using only the information on this page, then the XO software can be declared adequate for that brand/model/configuration. If additional steps (for example, using a HEX-conversion of the passphrase, or running an accessory script like Wpa.sh) is required, that information is useful and should still be recorded, but the connectivity test must be declared a failure. |

== Log capturing == |
|||
Hi Joe et al, |
|||
It would help to put a link to the log capturing instructions on this page. I'll put one here when I find it.... |
|||
Thanks, |
