Yes.  In the meantime, I would *love* to see the XS server running, and
a tutorial on how to use Sugar with non-XO computers connected thru a XS
server...  IMHO it's a promise that OLPC/Sugar cannot afford to bypass.

For example, there are many schools in France where they use an
Ubuntu-based distribution (AbulEdu) as a server and let the children
computers interact through this server.  When I talk to them about
Sugar, they immediately ask about the server.
