>> software to

>> components
>> is "Etoys", a tile-based authoring environment written on top of  
>> Squeak.
>> The talk will present the OLPC project, its current state of  
>> development
>> in general and the progress on Etoys in particular.
>>
>> Bio
>> ===
>> Dr. Bert Freudenberg got a PhD from the University of Magdeburg
>> (on non-photorealistic realtime rendering). He worked for impara GmbH
>> in Magdeburg developing software for children. Currently he is a  
>> freelancing
>> developer working for Alan Kay's Viewpoints Research Institute on  
>> porting the
>> Squeak and Etoys environment to the 100 dollar laptop.
