You may want to start a page at [[OLPC:People]] with public info from www.laptop.org, info on the contractors and interns here, and links to country pages where there is real activity. ([[user:xavi|xavi]] and I have been talking about how to separate the active countries from the inactive ones...)

Welcome to the One Laptop per Child wiki. Please make yourself at home; read through the [[Table of Contents]] and [[OLPC FAQ|FAQ]], and take a look around. If you need a general wiki-tutorial, [http://www.wikieducator.org/Wikieducator_tutorial Wikieducator has some excellent ones].

Some possible pages of interest:
* [[Pictures]]
* [[Ask OLPC a Question]]
* [[OS images for emulation]]
* [[Rollout and community building ideas]]

Check your [[Special:Preferences|preferences]] and be sure you verify your email address and turn on email notification if you'd like it -- you can find out when your talk page, or any page on your [[Special:Watchlist|watchlist]], is modified. You may want to upload a photo or information about yourself to your userpage (examples: [[User:Lauren|1]], [[User:Xavi|2]]).

Some open tasks:
{{opentasks}}

Feel free to leave me a note on my [[User talk:Sj|talk page]] if you have further questions or need help finding your way around.

Cheers, [[User:Sj|Sj]]

== "Jumpy scratchpad" test volunteer ==
I cc'd this from another page:

I gave up on my ALPS capacitive touch pad and bought a wireless mouse so I could work with the machine. I am a G1G1. I hereby volunteer to be a willing participant in a test of your proposed fix. Lemme know when/how (pls be rather detailed as to how to proceed, as I am >30 yrs of age). Thanks, Bill [[User:Wvbailey|Wvbailey]] 17:57, 22 December 2007 (EST)
: Thanks a lot, Bill. You should poke [[user:holt|Adam]] to help with this. We have been seeing real variance in jumpiness from machine to machine. Best, --[[User:Sj|Sj]]&nbsp;[[User talk:Sj|<font color="fc9" style="font-size:70%">talk to me</font>]] 19:26, 24 December 2007 (EST)

== Priorities and Preferences for wiki edits. ==

Adam,

&nbsp; Walter [[User_talk:Walter#Updating_wiki_pages.2C_any_priorities.3F|forwarded]] me to you about any preferences or priorities OLPC might have for me to doing wiki page edits and updates. I've been randomly doing little updates as I stumbled upon them, but was thinking you might have a better focus of my time right now. Please let me know how I can best help out, thanks.. --[[User:IainDavidson|IainD]] 02:45, 6 January 2008 (EST)


== New Template - Right TOC ==

Adam,

I'm not sure if you noticed, but I have been trying out one of my own templates on a few pages, to see if it helps with readability and user-friendliness. [[Template:RightTOC]] I've implemented on -

# [[System Software]]
# [[Software projects]]
# [[Software ideas]]
# [[OLPC Publications]]

Please let me know your thoughts, and if I should continue added this template to pages which need some help. Or I should refrain from using it. Thanks, --[[User:IainDavidson|IainD]] 02:45, 6 January 2008 (EST)

== need your comment ==

Hi Adam,

I need your comment in order to obtain the admin permission...

Please help me out at:

[[Administrators#Chih-yu_Chao]]

Thanks a lot!

=== adminship : mop and broom ===
Dear Holt,

You are now an [[olpc:administrators|admin]]. Use your powers wisely! Please avoid: protecting pages, blocking people (as opposed to bots) or any IP ranges for more than a month, and deleting too boldly.

Cheers, --[[User:Sj|Sj]]&nbsp;[[User talk:Sj|<font color="fc9" style="font-size:70%">leave me a message</font>]] 17:51, 11 January 2008 (EST)

Hi Adam, could you kindly remove [[Sunshine_Repair_Group%2C_Inc.]] from this wiki?
