Some challenges:

suspend/resume friendly (maybe updates only on frame view and resume),
links to the settings (control) panel to update system/local time,
links to Clock activity for learning to tell time, to Stopwatch for timing events and setting alarms, and Time for learning more about time (which might eventually have a link to Moon). --FGrose 05:37, 31 January 2009 (UTC)

A calendar for the frame. --FGrose 05:37, 31 January 2009 (UTC)
Blogging activity for Sugar.
Blog aggregator for a mesh network.

- I think 1024x768 is a good minimum. is this too low?
- thats enough for desktops, but netbooks may have something like 1024x600(Eee PC 900)
- Ok, 1024x600 sounds good. I contacted Eben Eliason to ask about his involvement. Wade 21:37, 28 January 2009 (UTC)

Create activities@sugarlabs.org mailing list.
Questionable - I tend to think additional mailing lists just add additional barriers.Wade 01:34, 14 January 2009 (UTC)
- or rather, migrate http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/activities over to SL mailman
