In Auckland we have quite a lot of XO-1s (mostly CL1 models) and a few
XO-1.5s (mostly prototypes with the wireless powersaving hardware
fault). We have virtualbox and regular laptop hardware, but I don't
think we have anything on which wireless works with soas. We also have a
schoolserver and good internet connectivity.

Wellington has a similar number of XOs, but I'll let Tim describe their
soas, virtualbox and other resources.

See http://wiki.laptop.org/go/OLPC_New_Zealand 

Personally, I find XO, SoaS and VirtualBox images easiest to test, we
download the night before and re-image our XOs or make new SoaS. For
example there is a Sugar 0.90 release email on this list today and I
have no idea what I'd do with the source.
