Summary: most success has been in Latin America with some potential in the Middle East. Leaving Sugar development to the Open Source community. Striving for no-cost connectivity.

- jimbokun 18y ago"Trying to build a library of 1 million digital books." This one I don't get, relative to what's on the web already. You can probably find 1 million books that have been made freely available, converted to either PDF or HTML. So does this mean 1 million different books? 1 million books specifically geared for kids in the developing world? Books that take special advantage of XO features? It's not clear from the article.
