If you are anything like us, you are already losing interest in lofty, often jumbled, and ambustion prose of the wiki. If so, please jump to the Frequently Asked Questions (and answers!) from our global community.

Our Ecosystem

The School Server Community Edition (XSCE, or http://schoolserver.org) is a global project where volunteer professionals are taking the One Laptop per Child movement into a new decade, enabling quality learning among the world's poorest children. Commercial support for our free software is available for those who need it, at Activity Central and through freelance consultants as necessary. Most important, you're invited to contribute your talents to kids' schools worldwide, in any way you find meaningful!

There are hundreds of similar projects around the world. Each work from slightly different perspectives. If you are interested in the project... but don't quite 'feel it,' please consider one of the following projects.
