GNUnited Nations (GNUN) is a build system for www.gnu.org translations.
It generates a PO template (.pot) for an original HTML article,
and merges the changes into all translations, which are maintained as PO (.po) files.
Finally, it regenerates the translations in HTML format.

Hi all,
The question about how to get videos from Khan Academy in any language was asked several times on this list.
We planned this year to deploy offline Khan Academy videos in French to our Nosy Komba deployment. So I've worked with Bibliotheque Sans Frontiere to get French videos.
They suggested me to use KA Lite [1], a software dedicated to install a offline Khan Academy server.
BTW it's slightly intrusive and need some installation. So I've write a script to explore and extract only videos URL. You could find it here [2].
The result of the script could be seen here [3] as a tree or here [4] as a single list.
Hope it could help.

Use "yum -y install nspluginwrapper" to install the package.
The OLPC OS build scripts for custom builds use the following command (run as root or via sudo) to finish the wrapping process. I have not verified it yet on a XO-1.5:

====='''Instructions on how make a booting Live USB device'''=====
* '''Windows, GNU/Linux, and Intel Mac's'''
* Fedora liveusb-creator - IMPORTANT
: '''USE "liveusb-creator --reset-mbr'' from terminal'''
: Or USB will not boot
* Original Liveusb-creator interface (still used in Windows)
[[File:Cinnamon_liveusb-creator_f21.png|500px]]
*Latest version has 2nd option: "Overwrite your device with the image using dd"
* Command line Use:
# liveusb-creator --help
Usage: liveusb-creator [options]
Options:
--version show program's version number and exit
-h, --help show this help message and exit
-c, --console Use console mode instead of the GUI
-f DRIVE, --force=DRIVE
Force the use of a given drive
-s, --safe Use the "safe, slow and stupid" bootloader
-n, --noverify Skip checksum verification
-v, --verbose Output extra debugging messages
-k ARGS, --extra-kernel-args=ARGS
Supply extra kernel arguments (eg: -k
noswap,selinux=0,elevator=noop)
-x, --no-xo Disable OLPC support
-m, --reset-mbr Reset the Master Boot Record
-C, --device-checksum
Calculate the SHA1 of the device
-L, --liveos-checksum
Calculate the SHA1 of the device
-H HASH, --hash=HASH Use a specific checksum algorithm (default: sha1)
-d, --dd Overwrite your device with the image using dd
(WARNING: destructive)
====[[Tutorials/Installation/Install & use liveusb-creator|Installing and using liveusb-creator in sugar]]====
:: An easy method for Fedora and Windows, however this method does not generate a separate home.img filesystem to conserve the exhaustible OS overlay (see [[LiveOS image]]), nor does it copy the livecd-iso-to-disk installation script to the new device to permit generation of a new Live USB device from the first.
: '''Note if graphical liveusb-creator program will not make a bootable USB stick from an .iso file:'''
:: (This can happen if the stick is formatted to fat16 on another PC with a different Operating System.)
: Use terminal command :
'''liveusb-creator --reset-mbr'''
: '''USB stick must be formatted: fat16/32; Labeled=LIVE; boot flag set.'''
:: (The LIVE label is only required when the device is to be used for a subsequent uncompressed installation to a hard disk.)
