This is a software release.

Summary

Title
8.2.1 OS, Release_notes/8.2.1
Description
The OS upgrade is to address critical bug fixes from release 8.2.0, mostly found in Uruguay. We also need to include fedora icon in all our releases going forward. We should consider including OFW with touchpad support in the final OS image (if it is ready).
Date proposed
2008-12-15
Priority
High. Uruguay wants to deploy in the beginning of January.
Champion
Kim/Reuben
Root Cause
A regression occurred that broke wireless activation. This feature doesn't have a test case and since we waited so long before we had a signed build to test, we did not find this regression. Other bug fixes in this release are to help Uruguay with their roll-out including their ability to manage their own final build (try to keep OLPC out of the sign-off).
Effect from the user perspective
Uruguay had a process that allowed all the laptops to get their activation keys wirelessly from the local school server on a regular basis. Release 8.2.0 broke that process.
Proposed Fix
Address bugs and small features listed below
Reviewers
