I think this is more by circumstance than by actual purpose.  Honestly, as 
I stumble forward with Mongo -- which is, admittedly, one piece of a much 
larger puzzle -- I don't see it running on just the OLPC, or just Fedora. 
I see it running anywhere anyone can run Python and Pygame.

I completely agree on this.  For me, it's always been pretty clear what 
the goals are, but that's because it's all been in my head for weeks now.

Let me articulate it again and see if people agree:

The goal is to...

...create a complete collection of modular educational 
activities...

...consisting exclusively of free software and free content...

...each targeted at a defined learning objective as defined by the 
curriculum framework for 4th grade math as defined by the state of 
Massachusetts.

Well, that's three of us.  :)
