[IAEP] State of Soas?

I would like to echo every single question that Christoph brought up.  I'm
interested in starting sugar labs in my city but was wondering if anyone has
a guesstimate (even if pulled out of their tush) of how long before the
issues below are worked out - or if they are even planning on working out
the issues.

Any help would be wonderful,
Kathy

Dear all,

even though I've tried to keep a close eye on the breathtaking development
of SoaS over the past few weeks there are still some basic questions I'm
wondering about, all related to how well SoaS runs on the various netbooks.

* Have the resolution issues, which used to be a major issue w/ running
Sugar on a non-XO, been solved?
* What about font sizes?
* Do all the activities (incl. collaboration) work reliably on SoaS these
days?
* Does SoaS allow for power-management to kick in on netbooks?
* What exactly are the networking and audio issues that Walter described in
yesterday's Sugar-Digest?

What I'm basically trying to find out is whether *today* running SoaS on a
netbook is a *real* alternative to XOs with build 767 when it comes to
classroom settings?

Thanks,
Christoph
