I think I spotted some typos:

110 msgid "foundation"
111 msgstr "participate"
112
113 msgid "foundationlink"
114 msgstr "link to participate"
# shouldn't they read 'foundation' instead of 'participate' the msgstr?
well, we are using participate even though we really mean foundation...
...
271 msgstr "Most of the nearly two&mdash;billion children in the developing world are inadequately educated, or receive no education at all. One in three does not complete the fifth grade."
#                                  mdash?
good catch
272
273 msgid "missionp2"
274 msgstr "The individual and societal consequences of this chronic global crisis 
            are profound. Children are consigned to poverty and isolation—just like 
            their parents—never guessing what the light of learning could mean in 
            their lives. At the same time, their governments struggle to compete in 
            a rapidly evolving, global information economy, hobbled by a vast and 
            increasingly urban underclass that cannot support itself, much less 
            contribute to the commonweal, because it lacks the tools to do so."
#                             commonweal?
commonweal means "The public good or welfare."
...
288 msgid "missionp5"
289 msgstr "XO embodies the theories of constructionism first developed by MIT Media 
            Lab Professor Seymour Papert in the 1960s, and later elaborated upon by 
            Alan Kay, complemented by the principles articulated by Nicholas 
            Negroponte in his book, <i>Being Digital<\i>."
#                                                   </i>?
oops
...
292 msgstr "Extensively field-tested and validated among some of the poorest and most 
            remote populations on earth, constructionism emphasizes what Papert calls 
            &quot;learning learning&quot; as the fundamental educational experience. A 
            computer uniquely fosters learning learning by allowing children to &quot;think 
            about thinking&quot;, in ways that are otherwise impossible. Using the XO as 
            both their window on the world, as well as a highly programmable tool for 
            exploring it, children in emerging nations will be opened to both illimitable 
            knowledge and to their own creative and problem&quot;solving potential."
#                                                           &quot; not closed/opened?
another oops.
