An update from One Laptop Per Child
Christopher Blizzard, who heads up Red Hat's contributions to the One Laptop
Per Child project, has posted an update on the status of
the project. "One of the areas that's under heavy discussion
right now is around the use of crypto on the laptop. This includes the use
of signing for messages between the laptops and signing of software
itself. We have neither made choices about what libraries we want or what
the exact role will be for all these bits, but we are exploring the goals
for which crypto plays a role." (Thanks to Rahul Sundaram).
