[Marketing] [support-gang] Fw: OLPC Globe and Mail article

As is unfortunately often the case, the journalist only read some
blogs and articles and did not bother contacting OLPC or Sugar Labs.
The unfounded meme that Sugar has somehow "disappeared" from the
world's XOs is particularly pernicious, considering Sugar runs on 99%
of them.

And as is often the case, a good solution is to point readers to other
resources through article comments.
