+Subject:  	humbly introducing... LopArt: a Visual Arts Software that would fit perfectly with the XO

+Hello,
+We have recently made the purchase of an XO Laptop. We believe in the
+project and would like to contribute to it in our own way.
+LopLop Inc. has worked in the software industry for more than a decade, and
+has developed a couple of drawing applications geared toward children.
+LopArt is a visual arts software that emulates real drawing strokes and
+styles (it beats TuxPaint out of the water J). Those who work with children
+are seduced by the simplicity of LopArt, as well as by the originality and
+creativity it allows. Whether it is used during free-time or for structured
+learning activities and projects, LopArt is a highly stimulating learning
+tool. It is present in more the 500 schools in Quebec alone. Examples of
+LopArt artworks can be seen on the LopArt Virtual Museum  it contains more
+than 40,000 artworks (www.lopart.org). LopArt was developed for all
+platforms, and is in open-source on Linux.
+For these reasons and plenty more, we would like a chance to present LopArt
+to XO members, since we believe it would be a great fit in the XO software
+family.
+If possible, please direct our request to the appropriate party. If you have
+questions or comments, do not hesitate to contact us.
+Regards,
+The LopLop Team
