[Sugar-devel] Recommended XO builds - all models

[Tony Anderson]

Hi, James

My apology for the error on the subject line - this happens when I reply 
list and don't fix the subject.

I've released builds with Sugar 0.104 on XO-4 and XO-1.75, known as
13.2.3, filenames 32016o2 and 32016o4.

I have purchased an XO-1.75 to install this build (assuming 3201604 is 
XO-4 and the other is XO-1.75).

I look forward to trying the build for XO-1.5.

I hope the the Browse problem can be resolved for the XO-1 so that I can 
move forward from build 12. The improvement
performance may convince deployments to move beyond build 12.

Rwanda persists with the 'locked' laptops so an unsigned build is not 
useful. The current problem there is to
implement updating activation leases from the school server. It is being 
done by usb key at present. The current installed build
there is 852.

Tony
