[IAEP] 13.1 ? and 12 ? Re: Sugar Digest 2012-11-30

[Yama Ploskonka]

Thank you again!

maybe I got this wrong. what happens is that I do not understand the 
nature of the
os## folder names, and, bottom line, how can I help most to get the 
repositories right this time for the msp430 toolchain.
I can test with XO-1 with dev key.

If I get right the meaning of "spin", the "os##" moniker would be the 
corresponding Fedora release?
I get that from http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Fedora_on_XO

so, the link you indicate,

  http://build.laptop.org/13.1.0/os15/xo-1/

would be based on Fedora 15?
