>> I have a contact at Ryerson University here in Toronto who runs the rather large research program which specifically works in the area of human device interaction for technology for severely disabled children, but he does not currently work with the XO because of the small form-factor. Would you still like me to forward this to him as he might have some insight for you. He's a big open-source advocate.

>> Hi all, I want to show you the first working prototype of mouseCAM
>> activity, wich is design to help childrens with physical limitations.
>> This activity communicates directly with the X server of the
>> GNU/Linux, being able to be use in the XO computer with any activity
>> or with the sugar system as well as any GNU/Linux with the graphic X
>> server system. We are working at Faculty of Engineering, UdelaR,
>> Uruguay in a course called NEXO with the aim of developing solutions
>> for childrens in a special school here in Uruguay and I am working
>> with Lorena, Guillermo and María Emilia to bring solutions to the
>> childrens that nowdays can't use the XO computer. I need help, maybe
>> people in this list knows about activities with very simple mouse or
>> keyboard interaction, that can be used in this context. Also we are
>> working in a turtleart plugin, in this case the children show a image
>> that corresponds with a block and then the corresponding block
>> connects with the last block in the programming area, this will be use
>> to develop very simple programs, like draw geometric figures or to
>> control the butia robot, but is a great improve for them.
