Hi,
Last question and I'll be quiet for a while :)
Which mailing list is best to use for OLPC-Etoys stuff, the squeakland one or the etoys@laptop.org one?
Yes, the question appears self-evident, but things are not always as they seem :)
Is etoys@laptop.org the bleeding edge list and squeakland is for the older image?

The etoys@laptop.org list is specifically for discussing the version of Etoys on the OLPC XO machine.
The Squeakland list is for general discussion between teachers, parents, and developers, mostly about educational use of Squeak but occasionally on even broader topics.

Is it true that the OLPC-Etoys version will soon become the official non-XO version as well (the one downloaded from Squeakland)? (ie, will there be just one version)
If so, would it be safe to say that tech stuff go to etoys@laptop.org and general stuff to squeakland@squeakland.org?

That is indeed what we plan to do. The version downloaded from Squeakland will only differ in the preferences enabled by default (for example, use the classic nav bar and smaller fonts).
If so, would it be safe to say that tech stuff go to etoys@laptop.org and general stuff to squeakland@squeakland.org?
This has not been the intention of the etoys list, it was created to discuss Etoys in the context of OLPC.
Lets hear what others think.
