====File Distribution System====
 +
An alternative to extending e-book readers -  a file distribution system for the server and a client for the XO.
 +
**We initially tried to set up an nfs mount however, this did not work.
 +
*The file distribution system will be in two parts: some server code that will keep a database of files and metadata about each file; the server will be viewed from a standard web browser as well as have an api that will allow our client to download files over HTTP.
 +
**Some optional features could be to allow each person to have a public file store that others can browse.
