Presence Scalability

XS scenario

  • Search based interface (Morgan Collett)
  • Shrink memory footprint (Martin Langoff)
  • ODBC ejabberd roaster
  • Web based interface for group management
  • ejabberd (seems) a convincing implementation (so far)
  • ejabberd is very tweakable, configurable, extensible
  • Martin working on it, ready in 6-7 weeks?

Global scenario

  • Optional feature (privacy, nat, bandwidth...)
  • Jabber server buried in remote control panel
  • Must restart Sugar to change


eBook reader (Chris Rowe, Bernie, Martin Langoff)

  • OLE Nepal asked for an application for opening, reading and browsing PDF books
  • OLE Nepal uses a web-based interface to browse for content
  • Martin: there are plenty of custom protocols and formats for content librararies
  • Martin: the Internet is already a good enough search tool for content
  • Chris: 85% of content is PDF, the rest is mostly MSWord
  • Chris: OLE Nepal said: "short term, we just want a viewer + some metadata"
  • How should the content be delivered to the kid? USB stick? School server? Online library?
  • MStone: you can run a web server on the XO!
