annotations on pdfs

My friend Luis Villa pointed me at this program that he's using
extensively with his tablet laptop.  He does a lot of reading and makes
a lot of annotations.

http://xournal.sourceforge.net/

It's an interesting looking program.  I don't know if anyone here has
mentioned it or not.

[PATCH] telepathy-gabble-olpc bug

Should be using caller-provided node name 'ns', not hardcoding the
ACTIVITIES namespace.  Caused requests for BuddyInfo to fail with 404
not found errors.

Can you clarify the context of these changes? i.e. what are you going to
use them for... I can try to guess but :)

TamTam still doesn't launch for me. Is this a known bug?

TamTam does not work without csound and we are not building csound atm
because it has a non "standard" build system. If someone feel like doing
the work to add csound to jhbuild that would be really useful.

Maybe only a dependency is needed? Debian offers csound 1:4.23f13-1. Is 
that good enough?

I don't know. We ship 5.03 on the images I think... not sure how they
compare.

5.xx is necessary; 4.x won't do :(

You'll have to install the csound-devel package too, and ensure alsa-lib-devel
is present, but swig is not needed because our python-c binding is done by hand.

server side

It is my understanding that each school will receive a server with
their allotment of laptops, although in terms of hardware it may not
be much more than an XO with a big hard drive.

Is anyone focusing on the server software at this point?

Also, what is likely to be the web server used?  Is Apache too big (I presume)?
