What documentation is needed?

See OLPC Publications for a partial answer. This addresses primarily hardware and software documentation for students, teachers, system administrators, and developers, and the separate issue of localization. There are proposals for teacher training and textbooks, but little is available.

What resources are available for creating documents?

• Source code repository
• Content Repositories
• Test builds/OS Images
• OLPC Wiki
• Software developers mailing list
• Peripherals mailing list
• Educators mailing list
• Library and content mailing list

and other such locations.

How do I get involved?

See Community/GettingInvolved for general information. Beyond that, look at what is being done, and offer to write, edit, or test something.

Who is working on documentation?
