Revision as of 18:51, 24 March 2008
These are collections of references, images, books, and other content bundles for download to the laptop. Collections should indicate which builds they are tested with. Please click on the name of a collection for details.
To install a collection by hand : unzip it into /home/olpc/Library (creating that directory if it does not exist) and run /usr/share/library-common/make_index.py . This should happen automatically when a file with .xol mime-type is downloaded.
If you have a collection for public consumption, you can bundle it up and add it to the grid. If you're not sure how to do this, add descriptions and links to the talk page.

To-do
Update the browser mime-type list so it knows how to unpack and stow away content bundlesUpdate the library main page to generate its navigation dynamically from its directory list- Publicise this standard to people with game, audio, video, text, and other libraries; including activities that are registering mime-types with the browser and want to offer a way to browse their projects without launching them directly: for instance, Etoys should automatically produce a content bundle linking to its projects on the laptop build... perhaps with a section linking to other projects online.
- Define the generic bundle type for simple collections of files to be shared
- Unify bundle metadata and extensions to avoid extra custom formats and specialized hacks
- Set up converters for SCORM and similar zipped formats that track extra data about bundle use or bundle-related data. (note that in current implementation, it makes more sense to convert them to 'activity' bundles than to 'content' bundles since they capture usage data and provide that to [the browser/launching app].)
