Word wrap?
DOES ANYONE KNOW HOW TO TURN ON WORD WRAP SO THE TEXT WILL BE FORMATTED FOR EASY READING WITHOUT HAVING TO USE THE BOTTOM SCROLL BAR? please fix & post how you accomplish this. I did not want to format with a table since that seems to be an excessive way to fix the formatting. :)
- The problem may be a side-effect of the leading spaces in the 'pre-installed content' list that caused that section to be unformatted. I removed those spaces, and the whole page seems to auto word wrap with the browser window width. --FGrose 14:54, 4 August 2009 (UTC)

Afghanistan
Afghanistan is a very famous for being a multicultural country. Participation of the OLPC project in Afghanistan will not only revolutionize the way we teach children, the vision behind this "educational" project, but also scale up the eco-system of sharing between the diverse set of communities existing in the central Asian countries.

OLPC technical implementation team started working on 19th of November 2008. We are now in the process of finalizing localization of laptop into Dari and Pashto, preparing training materials for teacher trainings, do some power testing experiments and much more! First laptops shall be deployed during December time into Ningarhar province and after winter holidays we will continue with other provinces.
LocalizationAfghanistan has 34 provinces and 6 to 8 commonly spoken languages with more than 36 Languages in total. The language with the largest number of speakers is Dari (Farsi) and Pashto. Both languages are official languages of the country, mainly used for educational, business and governmental purposes. All XO laptops will be localized into both languages. Localization takes place during first two months of the project deployment, using volunteers translations from Pootle and employing two professional linguists to translate untranslated parts and review current translations. With OLPC Pilot approaching, there are still a lot of strings to be translated (status). We would like to ask all volunteers interested to continue the great job in translation, new ones to join the localization team, get together, roll up sleeves, get some snacks n drinks ready and have a Translation Nite-out!
