What
This working session--called a sprint--will focus on updating an outdated collection of web pages with basic information about the XO laptop and Sugar. The pages are here:
These pages have not been widely promoted or used since the first OLPC Give One Get One promotion in 2007.
Why
The XO-1.5 laptop has gone into production and the Sugar Learning Platform has been significantly updated. There is a need to have this high-quality collection of web pages updated.

Who
- Mike Lee
- Adam Holt

Project Tasks
- Reuse as much of the existing HTML and Javascript as possible.
- Code keywords into all the new pages for search engine friendliness.
- Some of the text will need to be edited to reflect recent changes in the hardware and Sugar.
- Many new screenshots will need to be made.
- Some of the photo illustrations with callouts will need to be edited due to changes in Sugar or the laptop (e.g. expanded activity ring and new trackpad design).
- Outbound links need to be rechecked.
- One or more new pages need to be written and illustrated to explain new features such as the new Gnome Desktop.
- Create some inbound links from elsewhere on www.laptop.org and other user group sites.
- Time permitting, all updated pages and illustrations to be collected into a downloadable PDF.
