I think that creating educational content is an incredibly important thing, and that it should be freely distributable to all and translated and localized broadly. It's a huge undertaking.
There are a few projects around trying to do things like this (against the impressive might of the textbook publishing industry) and I wish them the best of luck. OLPC will be only one benefactor of such efforts, and KA is certainly a great project.
Another hub of free educational content and tools is is Moodle. XO Server ships Moodle with content packs, but again, I'm not sure what is in them, sorry :/
You can start near here to check on them: http://wiki.laptop.org/go/XS_Community_Edition http://wiki.laptop.org/go/XS_Community_Edition links to http://schoolserver.org/ http://schoolserver.org/
