[Its.an.education.project] Ivan's latest blog entry on OLPC

[info at olpc-peru.info]

Hello Edward,

I have check most of the sites that you mention.  That is not enough.  
That is too easy and I am asking myself if THAT is the kind of info 
(content) that we need to provide.  I keep diging, sorting and finding 
more things.

(Where? Not in a public place until I find the correct way to present 
this information: copywrights, formats, type of content).
