Hello and greetings from Peru.  
I got some experience developing a customized Ubuntu version used to create standalone servers than can serve content to OLPCs and tablets using WIFI without Internet access. This project was developed for the social responsibility program of local telephone company.

Now, however I am looking for a project/product that we can build and collaborate from the scratch and looks like KALITE and KOLIBRI offers a great opportunity, so I am looking how to start. If you can help me send me a message to alengua@enlanube.pe

Hello @atahualp4!

Great that you get in touch! Kolibri is made for your project, to made use of for free! It’s open source and is made to improve access to education and information.

Kolibri is under development and is expected to be available during mid-2017.

Please writer [partnerships@learningeqaulity.org](mailto:partnerships@learningeqaulity.org) if you have anything specific in mind that needs to be build. Kolibri is made to be a flexible component in a larger technological stack / deployment. We feel quite confident in saying that it fits many sizes, but it might need further explanation 🙂

Best,  
Ben
