This Live-CD project targets the main goals:

  * give children, students, teachers and parents
    the opportunity to participate and use the
    educational software on a common PC
  * support demonstration of OLPC software to non-developers
  * for developers the CD provides an easy maintainable Live-System,
    which could be used to develop and test activities on the sugar desktop


Main features and changes since the initial version 071206:

  * the CD is based on OLPC development build 689
  * during startup you can choose between English, Spanish, French or
    German language/keyboard settings.
  * the Live-CD has an automated installation of additional (beta)
    activities. Depending on available RAM size you will get some or all of:
       BlockParty-7.xo, CartoonBuilder-RC-1.7.xo, FlipSticks-RC-1.4.xo
       Implode-2.xo, JigsawPuzzle-1_20071030.xo, Jump-1.xo,
       Maze-3.xo, Simcity-4.xo, SliderPuzzle-3_20071030.xo, Speak-3.xo
