This is the project page for the Sugar Labs application to Google Code In 2014. Sugar Labs community members: please feel free to add tasks below. We'll do an edit before final applications are due in late Oct 2014.
Message to potential participants
It is important that you obtain permission of your parents.
Es importante que obtengas el permiso de tus padres para participar.
http://www.google-melange.com/gci/document/show/gci_program/google/gci2014/help_page#eligible
Please see the Contest Rules for Eligibility and Registration process.
http://www.google-melange.com/gci/document/show/gci_program/google/gci2014/terms_and_conditions
Details regarding the required forms and paperwork are here: Google Code In 2014/Participate#Students.
Also, you will likely need to set up the Sugar development environment. See http://developer.sugarlabs.org/dev-environment.md.html for details. Further information about contributing to the project can be found here: http://developer.sugarlabs.org/
Please don't hesitate to ask questions on our irc channel (#sugar on irc.freenode.net) or on the sugar-devel list: sugar-devel AT lists.sugarlabs DOT org
Why we are participating
Sugar is written and maintained by volunteers, who range from seasoned professionals to children as young as 12-years of age. Children who have grown up with Sugar have transitioned from Sugar users to Sugar App developers to Sugar maintainers. They hang out on IRC with the global Sugar developer community and are full-fledged members of the Sugar development team. It is this latter group of children we hope will participate in and benefit from Google Code-in. Specifically we want to re-enforce the message that Sugar belongs to its users and that they have both ownership and the responsibility that ownership implies. Just as learning is not something done to you, but something you do, learning with Sugar ultimately means participating in the Sugar development process. At Sugar Labs, we are trying to bring the culture of Free Software into the culture of school. So the Code-in is not just an opportunity for us to get some tasks accomplished, it is quintessential to our overall mission.
Tasks
Note: This is our preliminary list of tasks. We can add more as the contest progresses.

|---|---|---|---|---|
| Sharing Palette Highlight Bug | GTK3 Sharing Palette does not highlight the current selected option. The palette should highlight the icon of the selected option. This worked fine in GTK2. You can test with Chat (gtk2) and Browse (gtk3). Ticket: http://bugs.sugarlabs.org/ticket/4467 Relevant code: gtk3 themes at github.com/sugarlabs/sugar-artwork | 48 | Bug, Sugar, GTK, Theme | UI, Code |
| Magic Tool For Paint | The kids want the magic tools from TuxPaint in the sugar Paint activity. The teachers in Uruguay say the kids like the magic tools from TuxPaint. Ticket: http://bugs.sugarlabs.org/ticket/2838 Relevant code: https://github.com/godiard/paint-activity | 72 | Feature, Magic, Paint, Activity | Code |
| Use XO Game Keys For Stopwatch | Stopwatch must use the game keys! Icons in the buttons in the screen suggest the game buttons can be used to start/stop/reset the counters, but do not work. Probably the problem is the activity have many counters, and can't know what counter relate to the buttons. Ticket: http://bugs.sugarlabs.org/ticket/2976 Relevant Code: http://git.sugarlabs.org/stopwatch | 48 | Feature, Activity, Stopwatch, XO-Required | Code, UI |
| Clear Browse Cache on Crash | Browse cache can bloat up with time consuming valuable space on the laptop. On one laptop me and tch checked, there were 400MB of unaccessible files (mostly multimedia) in the Browse instance folder. We need a procedure to clean instance/ when starting browse (needs to check it is the only instance to avoid corner case of more than one browse instance). Another option is to check the date of partial files... Ticket: http://bugs.sugarlabs.org/ticket/2659#comment:6 Relevant code: https://github.com/sugarlabs/browse-activity | 48 | Browse, Activity, Bug, Cache | Code |
| On Screen keyboard Covers Terminal | On terminal activity, the OSK is covering the text entry area. This means that they cannot be used in tablet (full-touch) mode, meaning that they cannot meet Objective #2487. Ticket: http://bugs.sugarlabs.org/ticket/4542 Relevant code: https://github.com/godiard/terminal-activity | 48 | Terminal, Bug, OSK, Touch, XO-Required, Activity | Code, UI |
| Pippy does not load example if no tabs present | Steps: open pippy, close all tabs, open an example (any), nothing will happen and is confusing, the log shows an ugly error. Ticket: http://bugs.sugarlabs.org/ticket/4782 Relevant code: https://github.com/walterbender/Pippy | 48 | Pippy, Bug, Activity | Code |
