XSCE 0.4 (expected August 2013) will focus on reliability and configurability while expanding support for mass-market global communities like Raspberry Pi with advanced content options like http://internet-in-a-box.org and Pathagar ebooks.

As the spec and roadmap come together in coming weeks, plz bring your specific needs (and contributions?) together for all at server-devel@lists.laptop.org, thanks!

Version 0.4 should run on XO-1.5, XO-1.75, XO-4, x86 and x64 -- with experimental support for XO-1 and Raspberry Pi also possible.

It provides core AP features plus a small set of critical extended services. These extended services include:

  • Web server -- Building block for many other extended services
  • proxy server and web cache --bandwidth, web-filtering, web-monitoring
  • OLPC-update -- OLPC-update is necessary to update the kernel of XO
  • Activity update -- Enables teachers to easily distribute new or updated activities to their students
  • Backup/Restore -- Automatically creates backups students journals and enables teachers to restore those backups as needed.
  • Statistics generation and collection -- Enables developments to easily generate and collect laptop usage date
  • Virtual Private Network -- Creates secure point-to-point or site-to-site connections in routed or bridged configurations and remote access facilities
