Lucian,

So I've been working with Sugar on VirtualBox for a while now and it's
absolutely fantastic!  Have you found any tips or tricks that I might not
have? (Edge activation etc.)

Any luck working more closely with the SOaS team or Sugar team or virtual
box guys?  Let's get this thing rolling as THE way to develop / test for
OLPC!

Please get back to me, even if to say that you are still working with OLPC
or interested.

Best of luck to everyone, I hope you're all having a great summer and thanks
for contributing to OLPC :)

- Brian
