Hi all,
I was wondering if any people in the list had information on the UNICEF
Innovation project. I’m mainly interested in its rugged computing aspects.
I’m putting together some research on deploying Sahana in a low connectivity
environments and this looks very encouraging.
There is a lot of scope for a rugged pre-configured unit of Sahana for
a low connectivity (no power) environments that you find in most large
scale disasters. This is one reason that we worked on configuring
Sahana for the OLPC
Benefits:

Work done so far:
http://wiki.sahana.lk/doku.php?id=doc:olpcimg:english&s=olpc
Couple this with the p2p information exchange work being done for
Sahana in GSoC right now and the fact that the OLPC is targeted at
Children (ie alignment to UNICEF) and I believe you can build a very
compelling proposal.
