Hello all,

we finally managed to finish the first few chapters of the Activity 
Handbook that we've been working on. The purpose of this handbook is to 
provide you with all the information you need in order to get started 
with software development for the OLPC XO.

The current draft includes the first four chapters...

# Welcome to the Activity Handbook!
# Introduction to Sugar
# Preparation
# Sugar Basics

..which basically serve as an introduction to Sugar, to setting up your 
machine for Sugar development (emulation, sugar-jhbuild, Live-CDs) and 
writting a simple HelloWorld activity. We're going to expand the 
handbook over the coming weeks to include chapters about using the 
journal, collaboration, using the various XO input devices and 
sugarizing software. So stay tuned for updates!

You can find the Activity Handbook project page (with more information 
about the project, how you can contribute, etc.) at 
http://www.olpcaustria.org/mediawiki/index.php/Activity_handbook and in 
case you're feeling lazy you can simply click on the following link for 
a direct pdf download:

Please let us know what you think!

Best regards,
Christoph
