[Systems] Sugar Labs+OpenQwaq VM

[Helsene, Adam]

John, Stefan, and myself had a meeting today on IRC in which we came up with a plan to deploy OpenQwaq. 

We will be using a VM provided by Sugar Labs Infrastructure to have OpenQwaq installed on. Our hope is to have the OpenQwaq service properly in place before Sept 12th so it can connected to and used.

Meeting minutes can be found at: http://meeting.treehouse.su/treehouse/meetings/2011-08-16T18:17:53.html

Greetings from Athens! As John said, I'll be traveling through Aug 17.
(Then, I'll be even busier catching up with things at work).

Usually Local Labs get a Mediawiki instance and email addresses. The latter can be in the form of a Google Apps instance or simply @sugarlabs.org aliases forwarding to personal email addresses.

For anything else you may need, the Sugar Labs Infrastructure Team can provide virtual machines and managed hosting for common web applications, such as Drupal and Wordpress. If you don't intend to spend too much time on web presence, I recommend building a home page within our wiki and simply point nsdu.sugarlabs.org to it.
