+==== OLPC demoed to the EU president Danilo Türk ====
+
+Today we have been received by the President of Slovenia [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Danilo_T%C3%BCrk | Danilo Türk]],
+and **President in charge of the European Union**. I was told to show him some of the unique features of the XO. Somehow,
+I contained my emotion and managed to do a decent presentation.
+
+Before leaving us, the President expressed profound interest in the OLPC educational goals.
+This means our project is likely to receive support within the European Parliament.
+
+**Update**: President Türk knows about the shortage of Internet addresses, and
+was impressed by our laptop being IPv6-ready. We mentioned that the infrastructure
+is currently a show-stopper in most places, but the President said this issue will
+have to be addressed if we want the Internet to scale to the point required by our
+ambitious project.
