Just to point out that in my opinion, what we are trying to do is a
linux desktop with the following characteristics:

- Optimizes the path to learning.
- Usable by illiterate people.
- Minimizes its dependencies on symbols pertaining to any local culture.
- Easy to modify and extend by its users.

At least I don't think so much on kids, but then, I just code what I'm
told to ;)
