Background

The original OLPC Australia site was built in static XHTML/CSS and then converted into a Drupal 6 website. Civi-CRM was added to assist in customer relation management, donation management and management of Xo laptop deployment. There is also future work planned to incorporate inventory tracking and donation payment with merchant banking gateway integration through Civi-CRM.
