XOs go on and off the network all the time, as power management kicks in and the machines move in and out of AP range (or switch to a different AP). This is a disruptive process, and speeding it up would be welcome. Sridhar Sridhar Dhanapalan Engineering Manager One Laptop per Child Australia M: +61 425 239 701 E: [email protected] A: G.P.O.
