</div>You are _not_ the 'final responsibility for the project. The committers<br>
who are investing their time and effort are the project owners. If OLPC<br>
is currently paying you work on the project you are one of several committer and co-owners.<br>
<br>
You are responsible for getting documentation ready for the OLPC<br>
project.<br>
<br>
It might seem subtle, but it is significant deal in developing<br>
communities.<br>
