More sugar-server-templates templates

Depending on whether mace configuration will be used in Sugar Server based deployments or not, implement configuration for all needed services:

  • Content filter. Options are: Dans Guardian (MinD fork?), SquidCache, OpenDNS
  • Monitoring support. If connectivity is good, then no questions, there are a bunch of ready-to-use solutions like Munin, Nagious, etc. The problematic use case is having servers that are mostly or entirely offline. The way might be collecting data on school servers and passing them to the mothership somehow via sneakernet. Options: run http://collectd.org/ daemons on school servers and provide a useful uploading method.

Feedback service for sugar-server

Handle reports and statistics from XOs around a school server and securely send such to the mothership. This feature might be useful from pedagogical point of view, e.g., what activity is being used most of all.

Deployment

  • as much as possible a plug&play solution for SSK based school servers

(?) Initial Smart Objects support

Features/Smart_Objects

Many things to think about at first before any implementation...

(?) Mothership

  • Interaction with other motherships
  • Initial sugar-mothership implementation, regarding only the current sugar-server functionality

Need to collect more experience from XS deployments before any implementation...
