+
+==== Tracking ====
+
+And if you really have too much time on your hands, try helping me out on some of
+these tasks:

+
+==== Weekly OLPC Reports ====
+
+If you're interested in our progess at the OLPC lab, we
+publish weekly executive summaries here:

+
+This is the report that mentions me volunteering for
+the project:

+
+==== 60 Minutes ====
+
+In this episode of the popular American show SixtyMinutes,
+our founder NicholasNegroponte reveals a lot of details
+about the humanitarian role of the OneLaptopPerChild project:

+ http://bender.codewiz.org/wikidata/60_minutes_2007-05-20.avi
+
+The part about us starts approximately at 1/3 of the show.
+
+You may also find the last part interesting as it specifically
+addresses the controversial problem of private medical centers
+trying to save on assistance to homeless people.  Marco, you
+should see it!
+
+
+==== GreenishBitmaps ====
+
+'''Warning''': This article is rated PG0xF00F, parents discretion *not* advised.
+
+I've been struggling for the last few days on a the damn X server.
+
+In the RedHat builds, we're still using a pre-release of 1.2,
+labelled 1.1.99.  Now, we need to leverage some upstream work
+for input rotation that is landing on the Xorg tree right now.
+
+Backporting is not an option, and we want to stay up to date
+anyway.  We'll soon be moving to Fedora 7 anyway.  But even
+the just-released 1.3 that will be in Fedora 7 is not enough,
+because it has been branched some time ago, we must work
+from the tip of the git tree, which of course has become
+very unstable recently.
+
+I've been fighting all the week against all sort of bugs
+and build problems and, believe me, it's a very energy
+consuming exercise.
+
+The funniest thing I'm still trying to track are
+these GreenishBitmaps that nobody else except me
+is seeing.
+
+It's probably a miscompilation of some kind, but I've
+long ago ran out of obvious and less obvious ideas to try
+and I'm now far in the land of impossible things.
+
+All this time I've been in contact with a few X
+hackers on IRC, including the author of the AMD
+driver, but even them couldn't come up with a
+magical solution.
+
+
+==== Chat Line ====
+
+ Bernie, I'm Easy...
+
+'''Bernie''': Hello Easy!!!  It's good to be chatting here in the blog!
+
+I saw this two photo some row below...
+
+ But all those OLPC at the roof, what doing?? Only for furnishing or for specific utility?? :)
+
+'''Bernie''': Hehe... they're part  of the WirelessMesh, for testing
+purposes.  An hispanic guy called Miguel (not the same of De Icaza)
+sometimes fiddles with them.  He's lucky because he's very tall.
+I'd need a ladder :-)
+
+ The office is very beautiful and the Apple Cinema Display is really very big...
+
+'''Bernie''': Yeah, that's the personal screen of my boss/team-leader ChrisBall.
+It's 30". One day or another I'll bring here my 24" wide-screen from home.
+
+ Do you have some new news about your new work??
+
+'''Bernie''': Sorry for not updating the blog... I've been *extremely*
+busy.  I will do it shortly...  Promised.
