= Gtk3 Hackfest 2011 =
Two major changes have recently occurred in Sugar's underlying technologies. Firstly, GTK+ 2 has been obsoleted by GTK+ 3, and GNOME is now based on GTK+ 3. Secondly, PyGTK, the underlying Python library that Sugar uses to call into GTK+, has been deprecated in favour of PyGObject Introspection (hereafter "PyGI"). More background info can be found at [[Features/GTK3]]. Goal of this hackfest is to remove the biggest blockers before we can start the porting and potentially start porting over.

= Information written during the organization of the summit =

This page is for planning the EduJAM! summit in Uruguay May 5th to 7th 2011.

'''Don't forget the [[Conozco Uruguay Tour|pre-summit tour Apr 30 - May 5,]] as well as post-summit codesprint May 8/9 onwards -- dates are final but details are evolving!'''

== Main goals ==
* '''Focus on developers'''. It does not mean at all we're not concerned about educational aspects, but as a developers community we have huge challenges and the summit will be more of a working instance than a "reflection" instance.
* '''Exceed OLPC and Sugar'''. The developers community goes beyond OLPC and Sugar, and this could be a good instance for bringing "non-olpc organizations" to the conversation.
* '''Focus on South America'''. Bring as many south american developers as possible to Uruguay.

== Program ==
A first sketch of the event (''preliminary,'' [http://ceibaljam.org/drupal/?q=node/1127 see also update here!]) is as follows:
Program committee:
* Andrés Ambrois
* Walter Bender
* Gabriel Eirea
* Pablo Flores
* Gonzalo Odiard
* Fernando Sansberro

== Pre-Summit "Conozco Uruguay" Exploration Tour ==
We're organizing a set of in-person activities for those who want to know more about the Uruguayan/Ceibal experience, visiting different points of the country, meeting with families, teachers, etc.

This will happen during the 5-6 days prior to the summit (from Saturday April 30th to Thursday May 5th) for independent and resilient travelers, committed to "anthropological" learning through patient exploration -- [[Conozco Uruguay Tour|details are emerging here!]]

== Attendees ==
Attendees and possible attendees list in: http://ceibaljam.org/drupal/?q=node/1108<br>
If you want to attend, please write us: edujam2011@ceibaljam.org

Including Volunteer Organizers: Martín Abente, Walter Bender, Gabriel Eirea, David Farning, Pablo Flores, [[user:Holt|Adam Holt]], Bernie Innocenti, Aleksey Lim, Anish Mangal, Gonzalo Odiard, [[user:aa|Andrés Ambrois]]

== Accommodation ==
We'll put here some information about possible places for staying. At the same time we'll make a volunteers hosting program, so Uruguayan volunteers can host some of the attendees. More information soon.

Uruguay (generally) uses [http://treehouse.ofb.net/go/en/voltage/Uruguay 220V European] [http://www.adaptelec.com/index.php?main_page=document_general_info&products_id=252 electrical outlets] so please consider bringing a small converter.

Wifi access will be sought where possible, but not guaranteed.

== Registration ==
[http://ceibaljam.org/drupal/?q=edujam2011_en Registration is now Open!]

As explained therein, pricing is $100, with confirmed volunteers/students paying $30 or $10. Attendance will likely be limited to about 100 attendees maximum.

Flight prices will rise, so we strongly encourage you to book your flight to Montevideo (MVD) & register today!

== Uruguay ==

Visas are [http://worldtravelguide.net/uruguay/passport-visa not required] for most US, Canada, Europe, Australia citizens.

Direct flights to Montevideo (Carrasco Airport) from:
* US: Miami
* Europe: Madrid
* Most of South America
* Nearby hubs: Buenos Aires, Sao Paulo, Santiago
There are also nice ferries from Buenos Aires: http://www.buquebus.com/

An airport departure tax of $30+ may be charged upon leaving Uruguay, if not pre-paid within your flight ticket.

Touristic information: http://www.turismo.gub.uy

Don't forget to register for "Conozco Uruguay", our [[Conozco Uruguay Tour|pre-summit eduTRIP!]] (Saturday April 30 - Thursday May 5)

==Discussion==

Caryl Bigenho has posted some really great suggestions & topics on the [[Talk:Uruguay_Summit_2011|Talk Page]] -- eg. she started with "fun" activities for teachers, students, and parents to participate in alongside software architects -- please join her to [[Talk:Uruguay_Summit_2011|share your own ideas, for things you'd like to do at EduJAM!]]

== Finances ==

=== Current status ===

# We have assets of $25507.96 as of the Nov 2009 report from the SFC.
# About $7000.00 of this is discretionary; the rest is tied to the [[Gardner Pilot Academy]] (GPA) grant.
# Taxes: We do not need to worry about taxes at this time.
# Invoices: We have a number of pending invoices against the GPA grant.
# Who's responsible for keeping track of this, where are they filing things, and when are we regularly checking in on financial matters: This is one of the services we receive as part of our SFC membership. Once per month (around the ides) we get an update from the SFC. Currently, Walter is the one who checks with them on all financial matters, but it would be great if there were someone willing to volunteer in this space.
# What is our current process for requesting payments: [[Sugar_Labs/Governance/Transactions]]

=== Open Q&A ===

Questions about finances? Put them here!

* Should we have someone take on the action item of recruiting another treasurer (who would then have to be approved/appointed by a SLOBs motion)?
* Question
* Another question

== Infrastructure ==

=== New server ===

This is a request to pre-approve the budget for a fast machine with 8 cores
to run some of our primary services: wiki, trac, aslo, lists. These services
are currently running on solarsail and sunjammer, both of which are
insufficiently powerful to support the current growth in traffic.

If we successfully obtain donated servers from the Wikimedia foundation (see below),
we may keep going a while more without this expense. Ivan is also planning to
purchase a new server for his personal use, which he'll make available on friendly
terms as he has done for solarsail.

'''Motion:''' Authorize Bernie to purchase a new server. The cost should not exceed US$ 3000.

=== Wikipedia servers ===

As discussed in the latest [http://me.etin.gs/treehouse/treehouse.log.20100119_1559.html InfraTeam meeting],
we will try to get 3 machines to RIT (pending approval on their side) and the rest to Boston and
Washington DC. [[User:Lfaraone|Luke Faraone]] has a few contacts of organizations which would be able to rack the machines
for us.

These boxes are old and possibly not very reliable. They would make a good basis for
clustering ASLO if we're careful to make every component of the cluster redundant and
implement proper automatic takeover. [[User:Dfarning|David Farning]] and [[User:Alsroot|Aleksey Lim]]
produced a cluster prototype which needs some more tuning and testing.

Clustering ASLO is something that we could postpone by 1-2 years (at current growth rate)
if we purchased a modern machine which would be 8-10 times faster than our current hardware.
However, this project opens valuable collaboration opportunities with RIT and other partners.

'''Motion:''' Authorize Luke to ship some used hardware from the Wikipedia Foundation
(12 servers) to various hosting sites. The cost should not exceed US$300.

== Trademark ==

=== Background ===

==== Goals and scope ====

We are working on completing and ratifying a trademark policy for the Sugar Labs marks, which are held by the SFC on behalf of SL. This policy will have to be approved by the SFLC before it becomes legally binding; once it does, it will affect the following marks when used in a Sugar Labs context:

* Sugar Labs (trademark registered)
* Sugar on a Stick (trademark in the process of being registered)
* Sugar Labs Partner
* Sugar Ready
* Sugar Learning Platform
* Sugar

==== Current status ====

We currently have '''no ratified trademark policy.''' We have been using [[Sugar_Labs/Governance/Trademark]] as our guide on individual cases in the interim. The current draft of our trademark policy is available at [[Talk:Sugar_Labs/Governance/Trademark#Sugar_Trademark_Policy]].

==== Prior decisions ====

We have passed several trademark-related decisions in the interim that may be affected by our policy ratification decision.

* [[Oversight_Board/Meeting_Minutes-2009-12-18#Resolve_outstanding_Sugar_on_a_Stick_decision_.28Q3.29|MOTION: Yes, "Sugar on a Stick" should be reserved by Sugar Labs for use by the SoaS-Fedora distribution so that Sugar can be marketed effectively, until such time when a trademark policy, agreement, and process is put in place: SoaS will be the first project to go through
that process.]]
* [[Oversight_Board/Meeting_Minutes-2010-01-15#Fedora_use_of_Sugar_Trademark|The upcoming Sugar on a Stick release, which will be a Fedora 13 spin, is approved to use the Sugar on a Stick name.]]

==== References and resources ====

We have been drawing inspiration from how other open source projects have written their trademark policies.

* [http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Legal:Secondary_trademark_usage_guidelines Fedora secondary trademark usage guidelines]
* [http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Legal:Trademark_guidelines#Distributing_combinations_of_Fedora_software_with_non-Fedora_or_modified_Fedora_software Fedora guidelines on mark usage for distribution of Fedora software in combinatio n with modified or non-Fedora software]
* [http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Legal:Trademark_guidelines#Business_web_sites Fedora business website trademark guidelines]
* [https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Remix#Including_other_software Fedora Remix guidelines])
* [http://en.opensuse.org/OpenSUSE_Trademark_Guidelines OpenSUSE Trademark and Remix Guidelines]
* [http://www.linuxmark.org/faq.php using the "Linux" trademark]

=== Discussion points ===

* dfarning has asked us for permission to use the mark in his Ubuntu Sugar Remix
* From the point of view of Marketing, is this trademark policy legally tight enough to prevent abuse?
* What does the process look like from the perspective of a trademark requestee (walk through a case study)? How much work-time and wait-time do we predict such a requestee will have to budget for the process, and is this acceptable? What steps can we take, or amendments can we make to the draft proposal, to reduce that cost even further?
* Do we agree on the wording of the preamble as a human-readable introduction to "the legal stuff"?
* The idea of having a trademark secretary to act as a point of contact throughout the process.
** Technical setup: Have "trademark AT sugarlabs DOT org" set up as an email alias that sends the message to iaep with a [trademark] tag.
** Logistical setup: The trademark secretary would be responsible for responses to all emails with that tag, as part of their duties. Other duties would include answering queries on trademark policy as set by SLOBs (typically via email, as described above), acting as a guide/coach/advocate to parties requesting trademark usage and assisting them in putting motions on the topic before SLOBs, and maintaining public records so that all can track relevant SLOBs decisions on the matter.
** Governance setup: The trademark secretary would be an interim appointed position until the next election cycle (fall), at which time if we decide it has been useful and wish to make it a regular appointed position (like ombudsman and treasurer), we can.

=== Motion ===

To be called when the discussion is over, and there is general consensus that the trademark policy draft is ready:

MOTION: Approve the trademark policy listed at LINK.

MOTION: To appoint NAME as trademark secretary until the next election/appointment cycle, to be responsible for answering queries on trademark policy as set by SLOBs, acting as a guide/coach/advocate to parties requesting trademark usage and assisting them in putting motions on the topic before SLOBs, and maintaining public records so that all can track relevant SLOBs decisions on the matter.

=== Followup ===

The following action items need to be taken by somebody.

* #action Clean up the wiki pages to reflect this discussion, making any redirects needed to clarify that all prior draft work has been pulled into the current, SLOBs-ratified trademark policy. Note on the policy page that the policy is pending approval by the SFLC.
* #action Notify the community of the trademark ratification via the usual means (iaep with a [SLOBs] tag, Planet).
* #action Forward the trademark policy to the SFLC for approval; check in on progress next week.
* #action Perform any necessary follow-up with the parties involved in related [[#Prior decisions]] to ensure past decisions are brought up to date to be compliant with the current (newly ratified) policy. In particular, start SoaS through the trademark approval process.

==Goals for 2010==
Proposed 2010 goals for Sugar Labs (very rough first pass)
# Release Sucrose 0.88 and 0.90 in order to provide a more useful and stable learning platform for deployments and developers
## Release Sucrose 0.88 in March
## Release Sucrose 0.90 in November
## Deliver a product that has been well tested for usability and ''accessibility'' needs
## Make successful launches with great marketing campaigns
## Promote corresponding SoaS releases with Fedora
## Make progress on a REL-based release of Sugar
# Make Sugar the learning platform of choice for 2010
## Support existing local user groups (e.g., local Sugar Labs) and work to create new ones
## Have SL representation at major free software and education events
## Establish relationship with third-party solution providers to help them understand the benefits of Sugar
## Work with other learning programs that complement our efforts
# Explore Sugar in the context of mobile devices and web-based services
# Make Sugar Labs ''the'' place for working on learning-related technologies
## Provide forums for teachers and developers to collaborate
## Demonstrate leadership by providing great tools for the appropriation and application of knowledge
## Always ask: how does this impact the learning
# Eat our own dogfood
## Promote free software
## Be transparent and open to critique
## Encourage new people to join our project

== Future issues to address ==

None immediately, as of now - [[Oversight_Board/Minutes]] may provide some inspiration. Please add topics to the list if they come up.

Talk:Trademark

2009-12-30T15:15:05Z

Cjb: small rewording

==Sugar Labs association/organization conflated with Sugar software==
:2a & b, and elsewhere suggest that the full name of our product is 'Sugar Labs' rather than Sugar or some form of Sugar. Yes, 5e suggests that Sugar is short for Sugar Labs. This would be a new practice. Why conflate the terms?

:Why not register [[What is Sugar?|Sugar]] as a mark for our software, and [[Sugar Labs]] for our association?

::--[[User:FGrose|FGrose]] 23:18, 7 July 2009 (UTC)
==Logo==
: In paragraph 1, "(our trademark registration application for the logo is still pending)", is a separate statement, right? Sugar Labs is already registered, but the logos (colors and typeface) are pending registration, no? If so, this would be more clear as a separate sentence in the introduction, as it is currently too closely associated with the Sugar Labs name.
::--[[User:FGrose|FGrose]] 23:45, 7 July 2009 (UTC)
::AFAIK, the logo is not registered. It seemed that the name "Sugar Labs" was enough. --[[User:Walter|Walter]] 00:00, 8 July 2009 (UTC)

==Section 5a==

:It has been suggested that we certify distributions as "Sugar on a Stick". "Otherwise nothing stops anyone from creating a lousy version which hardly works and calls it Sugar on a Stick Peanut Butter release, etc."

:Comments? --[[User:Walter|Walter]] 22:23, 7 July 2009 (UTC)

::We have our hands full verifying and testing our own release. Our best defense is focusing on making the best release and so being able to market it as such. --[[User:FGrose|FGrose]] 23:28, 7 July 2009 (UTC)
::I agree. It adds yet another thing to worry about that can better be handled downstream. --[[User:Walter|Walter]] 23:34, 7 July 2009 (UTC)

::: This line of judgement needs revisiting. "our own release" means Strawberry? If SL lets anyone use "Sugar on a Stick", then it's probably giving up the rights to the trademark "Sugar on a Stick", right?

==[[Sugar Labs/Legal/Logo and trademark policy]]==
: This older page needs updating. --[[User:FGrose|FGrose]] 18:31, 4 September 2009 (UTC)
{{Merge|Sugar Labs/Legal/Logo and trademark_policy}}

== Sugar on a Stick Guidelines ==

I am herewith proposing the following changes to the section 5a. This has been derived from Fedora's [http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Legal/TrademarkGuidelines trademark guidelines] and might need to be adjusted to cover more cases, as listed in those guidelines. By referring to Sugar on a Stick, the following draft means the project [[Sugar_on_a_Stick| located]] and [http://git.sugarlabs.org/projects/soas hosted] here.

* You '''may''' use the term ''Sugar on a Stick'' whenever referring to the official Sugar on a Stick product and its releases, as well as when distributing ''unmodified'' copies of it.
** However, this usage '''must not''' imply any endorsement by Sugar Labs or the Sugar on a Stick project, unless this is case and an appropriate agreement has been reached.
* You '''may''' modify Sugar on a Stick and create ''remixes'' of it.
** However, when distributing or selling this modified version, you '''must not''' call it Sugar on a Stick.
** When not exposing the resulting product to the public, you '''may''' still call it Sugar on a Stick, though. A deployment might adjust Sugar on a Stick for its needs and still say it deployed Sugar on a Stick, as long as the modified version is not distributed publicly.

== substantially unmodified ==

We discuss examples of "substantially unmodified" in [[Sugar Labs/Governance/Trademark|Section 2]] of the policy: "including but not limited to: the enabling or disabling of certain features by default, changes required for compatibility with a particular operating system distribution, or the inclusion of bug-fix patches." But it would be instructive to give some examples of changes that would not qualify as substantially unmodified: including but not limited to adding of non-free drivers. (We need to build consensus around this issue.) --[[User:Walter|Walter]] 20:44, 18 December 2009 (UTC)

== How to make modifications ==
There is a discussion [[Features/Feature_SoaS_customization|here]] about making a systemic process for most trivial modifications. --[[User:Walter|Walter]] 20:44, 18 December 2009 (UTC)

==Sugar Trademark Policy==

DRAFT: 30 December 2009

The purpose of this policy is to protect the public, by ensuring that the identity, provenance, and open-source nature of Sugar Labs<sup>®</sup> remain clear. Throughout this document, the "Marks" refers to the Sugar Labs name and logo, individually or together. However, note that '''S'''ection 5 provides guidelines for other marks that Sugar Labs uses. Sugar Labs is a member project of the Software Freedom Conservancy, which is the holder of the registered mark.

Guidelines for Using the Marks

1.

The first or most prominent mention of the name should be immediately followed by a symbol for registered trademark: "®" or "(r)". For example: "Sugar Labs<sup>®</sup>" (our trademark registration application for the logo is still pending).

This requirement is waived in all contexts where such marks are not normally included: email, on-line discussion, non-graphical advertisements (when permitted), and academic papers. We encourage the use of the symbol whenever possible, but recognize that many non-commercial and informal uses will omit it.

2.

You may use the Sugar Labs Marks without prior written permission for the following purposes (subject to the other sections):

:a.

:To refer to the Sugar Labs software in substantially unmodified form "substantially unmodified" means built from the source code provided by the Sugar Labs project, possibly with minor modifications including but not limited to: the enabling or disabling of certain features by default, changes required for compatibility with a particular operating system distribution, or the inclusion of bug-fix patches). '''All such minor modifications must be released under an approved license. (That should link to a page on our licensing philosophy that includes the license criteria: http://opensource.org/docs/osd, Preapproved licenses: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Licensing#Good_Licenses%27s, and "for further questions, ask SLOBs to ask the SFC." from http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Oversight_Board/Meeting_Minutes-2009-12-11)'''

:If you are producing a new product which is based on Sugar Labs software but which has more substantial changes than those described in the previous paragraph, you may refer to your product as '''"derived from", "based on", or "a derivative of" a Sugar Labs mark.'''

:b.

:To identify Sugar Labs '''software''' as a distinct component of a software offering. '''For example, "MyDistro, sweetened by Sugar" or other "<product>, <joined with> Sugar" language would be a use that does not require explicit written permission.'''

:c.

:To refer to the Sugar Labs project itself, its products, or its protocols.

3.

You may use '''the''' Sugar Labs '''Marks''' as part of the name of a product designed to work with Sugar Labs, so long as the name as a whole (via its other components) clearly and unambiguously distinguishes the product from Sugar Labs '''software''' itself, and the general presentation of the product does not imply any official association or identity with Sugar Labs. Because it would be awkward to attach a trademark symbol to a portion of a larger name whose other portions might themselves be trademarked, the requirement to display the symbol is waived for this circumstance.

4.

You may not use the Marks in the following ways:

:a.

:In any way likely to cause confusion as to the identity of the Sugar Labs project, the provenance of its software, or the software's license '''(the Sugar Labs Marks should be secondary in advertising materials);'''

:b.

:In any way that indicates a greater degree of association between you and the Sugar Labs project than actually exists;

:c.

:In any way that implies a designated successor to Sugar Labs (e.g., "Sugar Labs++" is not permitted).

:'''d.'''

:'''In a way that indicates that Sugar Labs favors one distribution, platform, product, etc. over another.(http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Oversight_Board/Meeting_Minutes-2009-12-18)'''

5.

Sugar Labs also uses the following other marks, which we may choose to register:

:a.

:Sugar on a Stick:
::You may produce and distribute Sugar Labs software on a USB key. <strike>and refer to it as "Sugar on a Stick".</strike> However, you are '''required''' <strike>encouraged to add a qualifying label</strike> to distinguish it from '''"Sugar on a Stick"''' <strike>other distributions. For example, the</strike> '''– that mark is currently associated with the Fedora GNU/Linux distribution. Different versions of Sugar on a Stick are indicated by a qualifying phrase, e.g.,''' the "Sugar on a Stick v1 Strawberry" Release is based on Fedora 11. ''question: do we want to explicitly limit SoaS to a particular project/effort/group working on the Fedora variant, or does this clause broadly include any Fedora-based spins anyone might choose to start? [[User:Mchua|Mchua]] 15:06, 30 December 2009 (UTC)''

:b.

:Sugar Labs Partner:
::"Sugar Labs Partner" should only be used to refer to a person or entity that is officially affiliated with the Sugar Labs project. Sugar Labs is happy to designate partners, so please contact us if you are interested in becoming a Sugar Labs Partner.

:c.

:Sugar Ready:
::"Sugar Ready" may be used to refer to software certified by Sugar Labs to run on top of an official version of Sugar Labs, please contact us if you are interested in receiving a certification.

:d.

:Sugar Learning Platform
::"Sugar Learning Platform" should be used to refer to the software created by Sugar Labs and should be used under the same guidelines as per Sections 2 and 3 of this policy.

:e.

:Sugar
::We sometimes use this term as a shortened way to refer to software and other things created by Sugar Labs. Please use this policy as guidance for use of these terms as well and contact us if you are uncertain.
'''
:f.

:local Sugar Lab:
::We have affiliated local and regional Sugar Labs that are referred to Sugar Labs <Region Name>, e.g., Sugar Labs Colombia. Sugar Labs is happy to designate local lab partners, so please contact us if you are interested in establishing a local Sugar Labs.
'''

6.

You may create and sell merchandise using the Sugar Labs name and logo without additional permission provided that you use only unmodified graphics from the logo page on the Sugar Labs website. Please contact us if you would like to sell any other merchandise containing a Sugar Labs mark. This section is subject to the provisions contained in Sections 2 and 3 of this policy.

7.

The Software Freedom Conservancy reserves the sole right to:

:a.

:Determine compliance with this policy;

:b.

:Modify this policy in ways consistent with its mission of protecting the public;

:c.

:Grant exceptions to this policy, of any kind and for any reason whatsoever, other clauses notwithstanding.

If you have questions about using the Marks, or if you think you should be able to use the Marks for any purpose not allowed by this policy and would like permission for that use, please contact Sugar Labs by emailing [trademark@sugarlabs.org].

==About==
The Sugar Labs [[Oversight_Board|Oversight Board]] "shall meet at least once per quarter to discuss various topics pertaining to the regular activities of the Sugar Labs Project and Sugar. (It is expected that more frequent meeting will be required in the early stages of the program.) The minutes to these meetings shall be posted publicly on the Sugar Labs wiki,"

[[Sugar Labs/Governance/Committees|Committee]] reports will be a regular part of the meetings.

==Who==

The meeting is mainly targeted to Sugar Oversight Board, but everyone interested is welcome to join. It's primary purpose is to discuss general issues related to Sugar and the Sugar community; however, it is not intended as a replacement for the weekly developer meetings.

==How to add topics==
You can add the topics that you want to discuss during the week to the [[#Upcoming_Topics|Upcoming Topics Section]] below. They will be collected during the week and send out in the meeting announcement on ~24 hours before the meeting. A reminder to add topics will be announced in the [[Sugar_Labs/Current_Events|Sugar Digest]].

** Any other question the Decision Panel deems required to provide an answer to the original question: "Is the current SoaS going to be the primary way Sugar Labs distributes a Sugar-centric GNU/Linux distribution?"

Please make comments on the [[Talk:Sugar_Labs/Governance/Trademark|Discussion Page]].

==DRAFT Sugar Trademark Policy==

DRAFT: July 6, 2009

The purpose of this policy is to protect the public, by ensuring that the identity, provenance, and open-source nature of Sugar Labs® remain clear. Throughout this document, the "Marks" refers to the Sugar Labs name and logo, individually or together. However, note that section 5 provides guidelines for other marks that Sugar Labs uses. Sugar Labs is a member project of the Software Freedom Conservancy, which is the holder of the registered mark.

Guidelines for Using the Marks

1.

The first or most prominent mention of the name should be immediately followed by a symbol for registered trademark: "®" or "(r)". For example: "Sugar Labs®" (our trademark registration application for the logo is still pending).

This requirement is waived in all contexts where such marks are not normally included: email, on-line discussion, non-graphical advertisements (when permitted), and academic papers. We encourage the use of the symbol whenever possible, but recognize that many non-commercial and informal uses will omit it.

2.

You may use the Sugar Labs Marks without prior written permission for the following purposes (subject to the other sections):

:a.

:To refer to the Sugar Labs software in substantially unmodified form ("substantially unmodified" means built from the source code provided by the Sugar Labs project, possibly with minor modifications including but not limited to: the enabling or disabling of certain features by default, changes required for compatibility with a particular operating system distribution, or the inclusion of bug-fix patches).

:If you are producing a new product which is based on Sugar Labs software but which has more substantial changes than those described in the previous paragraph, you may refer to your product as "derived from Sugar Labs," "based on Sugar Labs," or "a derivative of Sugar Labs."

:b.

:To identify Sugar Labs as a distinct component of a software offering.

:c.

:To refer to the Sugar Labs project itself, its products, or its protocols.

3.

You may use "Sugar Labs" as part of the name of a product designed to work with Sugar Labs, so long as the name as a whole (via its other components) clearly and unambiguously distinguishes the product from Sugar Labs itself, and the general presentation of the product does not imply any official association or identity with Sugar Labs. Because it would be awkward to attach a trademark symbol to a portion of a larger name whose other portions might themselves be trademarked, the requirement to display the symbol is waived for this circumstance.

4.

You may not use the Marks in the following ways:

:a.

:In any way likely to cause confusion as to the identity of the Sugar Labs project, the provenance of its software, or the software's license;

:b.

:In any way that indicates a greater degree of association between you and the Sugar Labs project than actually exists;

:c.

:In any way that implies a designated successor to Sugar Labs (e.g., "Sugar Labs++" is not permitted).

5.

Sugar Labs also uses the following other marks:

:a.

:Sugar on a Stick:
::You may produce and distribute Sugar Labs software on a USB key and refer to it as "Sugar on a Stick". However, you are encouraged to add a qualifying label to distinguish it from other distributions. For example, the "Sugar on a Stick Strawberry" Release is based on Fedora 11.

:b.

:Sugar Labs Partner:
::"Sugar Labs Partner" should only be used to refer to a person or entity that is officially affiliated with the Sugar Labs project. Sugar Labs is happy to designate partners, so please contact us if you are interested in becoming a Sugar Labs Partner.

:c.

:Sugar Ready:
::"Sugar Ready" may be used to refer to software certified by Sugar Labs to run on top of an official version of Sugar Labs, please contact us if you are interested in receiving a certification.

:d.

:Sugar Learning Platform
::"Sugar Learning Platform" should be used to refer to the software created by Sugar Labs and should be used under the same guidelines as per Sections 2 and 3 of this policy.

:e.

:Sugar
::We sometimes use this term as a shortened way to refer to software and other things created by Sugar Labs. Please use this policy as guidance for use of these terms as well and contact us if you are uncertain.

6.

You may create and sell merchandise using the Sugar Labs name and logo without additional permission provided that you use only unmodified graphics from logo page on Sugar Lab's website. Please contact us if you would like to sell any other merchandise containing a Sugar Labs mark. This section is subject to the provisions contained in Sections 2 and 3 of this policy.

7.

The Software Freedom Conservancy reserves the sole right to:

:a.

:Determine compliance with this policy;

:b.

:Modify this policy in ways consistent with its mission of protecting the public;

:c.

:Grant exceptions to this policy, of any kind and for any reason whatsoever, other clauses notwithstanding.

If you have questions about using the Marks, or if you think you should be able to use the Marks for any purpose not allowed by this policy and would like permission for that use, please contact Sugar Labs by emailing [trademark@sugarlabs.org].

The first or most prominent mention of the name should be immediately followed by a symbol for registered trademark: "®" or "(r)". For example: "Sugar Labs®" (our trademark registration application for the logo is still pending).

This requirement is waived in all contexts where such marks are not normally included: email, on-line discussion, non-graphical advertisements (when permitted), and academic papers. We encourage the use of the symbol whenever possible, but recognize that many non-commercial and informal uses will omit it.

2.

You may use the Sugar Labs Marks without prior written permission for the following purposes (subject to the other sections):

:a.

:To refer to the Sugar Labs software in substantially unmodified form ("substantially unmodified" means built from the source code provided by the Sugar Labs project, possibly with minor modifications including but not limited to: the enabling or disabling of certain features by default, changes required for compatibility with a particular operating system distribution, or the inclusion of bug-fix patches).

:If you are producing a new product which is based on Sugar Labs software but which has more substantial changes than those described in the previous paragraph, you may refer to your product as "derived from Sugar Labs," "based on Sugar Labs," or "a derivative of Sugar Labs."

:b.

:To identify Sugar Labs as a distinct component of a software offering.

:c.

:To refer to the Sugar Labs project itself, its products, or its protocols.

3.

You may use "Sugar Labs" as part of the name of a product designed to work with Sugar Labs, so long as the name as a whole (via its other components) clearly and unambiguously distinguishes the product from Sugar Labs itself, and the general presentation of the product does not imply any official association or identity with Sugar Labs. Because it would be awkward to attach a trademark symbol to a portion of a larger name whose other portions might themselves be trademarked, the requirement to display the symbol is waived for this circumstance.

4.

You may not use the Marks in the following ways:

:a.

:In any way likely to cause confusion as to the identity of the Sugar Labs project, the provenance of its software, or the software's license;

:b.

:In any way that indicates a greater degree of association between you and the Sugar Labs project than actually exists;

:c.

:In any way that implies a designated successor to Sugar Labs (e.g., "Sugar Labs++" is not permitted).

5.

Sugar Labs also uses the following other marks:

:a.

:Sugar on a Stick:
::You may produce and distribute Sugar Labs software on a USB key and refer to it as "Sugar on a Stick". However, you are encouraged to add a qualifying label to distinguish it from other distributions. For example, the "Sugar on a Stick Strawberry" Release is based on Fedora 11.

:b.

:Sugar Labs Partner:
::"Sugar Labs Partner" should only be used to refer to a person or entity that is officially affiliated with the Sugar Labs project. Sugar Labs is happy to designate partners, so please contact us if you are interested in becoming a Sugar Labs Partner.

:c.

:Sugar Ready:
::"Sugar Ready" may be used to refer to software certified by Sugar Labs to run on top of an official version of Sugar Labs, please contact us if you are interested in receiving a certification.

:d.

:Sugar Learning Platform
::"Sugar Learning Platform" should be used to refer to the software created by Sugar Labs and should be used under the same guidelines as per Sections 2 and 3 of this policy.

:e.

:Sugar
::We sometimes use this term as a shortened way to refer to software and other things created by Sugar Labs. Please use this policy as guidance for use of these terms as well and contact us if you are uncertain.

6.

You may create and sell merchandise using the Sugar Labs name and logo without additional permission provided that you use only unmodified graphics from logo page on Sugar Lab's website. Please contact us if you would like to sell any other merchandise containing a Sugar Labs mark. This section is subject to the provisions contained in Sections 2 and 3 of this policy.

7.

The Software Freedom Conservancy reserves the sole right to:

:a.

:Determine compliance with this policy;

:b.

:Modify this policy in ways consistent with its mission of protecting the public;

:c.

:Grant exceptions to this policy, of any kind and for any reason whatsoever, other clauses notwithstanding.

If you have questions about using the Marks, or if you think you should be able to use the Marks for any purpose not allowed by this policy and would like permission for that use, please contact Sugar Labs by emailing [trademark@sugarlabs.orgCh].

[[User:Cjb]] would love to see a collaborative quiz activity that works something like this:

* gives a shared countdown and then asks a question, and gives points based on who answered correctly/first/etc, and keeps track of scores over time
* this could either use static written questions, or randomly generated questions based on rules (like a math problem generator that comes up with questions by choosing from random numbers inside a given range)
* would be a great way to showcase collaboration and harness the power of competition for learning e.g. math

If you're interested in helping out, please add your wiki name to this list!

When you plan to take a task from the list, please sign and date it using four tildes.
<pre>* task name &tilde;&tilde;&tilde;&tilde;</pre>

When a task is complete, strike it out.
<pre><strike>task name</strike></pre>

==High Impact Tasks==
These are tasks which will have a big impact on Sugar deployments. This is your chance to affect thousands of children in the developing world! This section will be updated frequently to feature the most urgent work the Activity Team has to do.

====Quiz software====
One of the top activity requests from deployments is a general purpose, collaborative [[Activities/Quiz|Quiz activity]]. It should support creation of quizzes by teachers. It should support image, sound and text content, in the form of multiple choice, fill in the blank, true/false, etc. It should allow multiple students to take a quiz simultaneously by joining the activity.

====Speak collaboration====
This has the potential to be an awesome communication method; not only a chat option for the blind but a way of teaching specific words, and a fun way to engage small clusters of people around an XO: sound carries well to people who aren't currently reading the screen.

====Maze collaboration====
Maze is currently the most addictive multiplayer game on the XO, and it needs a further dusting of crack, including better statistics, handicaps, etc.

====SWF activity launcher====
The Nepal deployment have created a suite of Flash based learning activities but are currently having to jump through many hoops to package them correctly. We would like to have a launcher which creates an activity window and launches Gnash in it, with a .SWF file. This launcher would then be used to easily make activity bundles out of SWF files.

====Web activity launcher & framework====
Other deployments are using HTML+CSS+Javascript to make learning activities, but they currently have to be installed using the Library Collection feature of Sugar which is not well developed. We would like to build a 'web-activity' launcher script which allows Web based activities to be first class activities with icons on the home screens. This would involve making a new framework out of the source code to the Browse activity and submitting it upstream to the DevelopmentTeam, in addition to writing the launcher script.

====Document Process to Add instruments to TamTam====
<strike>Most deployments would love to add their native instruments to TamTam but have no idea how to get started. Documentation on how to do this is lacking in the TamTam wiki. If it is very technically challenging to add new instruments to TamTam, it would be great if someone from the ActivityTeam would volunteer to assist deployments in adding new instruments.</strike> see [[Modifying_Activities#Modifying_TamTam|Modifying TamTam]]

==Community Tasks==
* <strike>Announce availability of ATeam contacts page to mailing lists. [[User:Wade|Wade]] 17:26, 12 January 2009 (UTC)</strike>
* Query ATeam members about skills, interest, time commitment. [[User:Wade|Wade]] 17:26, 12 January 2009 (UTC)
* Look for at least one additional coordinator.
* Contact former + current activity developers. [[User:Wade|Wade]] 17:26, 12 January 2009 (UTC)
** Ask about moving activities to git.sugarlabs.org (or mirroring).
** Ask about joining the ActivityTeam or coming to meetings.

==Infrastructure Tasks==
* Make activities.sugarlabs.org (or addons.sugarlabs.org) work. See [[ActivityTeam/Remora_port]].
* Move projects owned by ATeam members over to git.sugarlabs.org and downloads.sugarlabs.org
*: See [[ActivityTeam/How_to_migrate_from_OLPC]] for activity migration instructions.
*: See [[ActivityTeam/ActivityStatus]] for a list of projects that need to be moved.
* Bug IT to get us admin accounts for SL services.
** Downloads (It would be great if they could set up a way to automatically publish tarballs and xo bundles from Gitorious to downloads without a shell account).
** Trac (component creation)
* Ask IT about activity repository mirroring. A read-only Git repository on SL which automatically pulls from a remote repository.
* <strike>Flesh out structure for ActivityTeam wiki.[[User:Wade|Wade]] 01:34, 14 January 2009 (UTC)</strike>
* Create ActivityTeam wiki structure page indicating where content is supposed to go.
* <strike>Bug IT to add helpful "git-clone" hints like on: http://dev.laptop.org/git?p=activities/help;a=summary and/or instructions for developing within sugar like: (snipped) I moved this snippet to the Get Involved page, and Gitorious does offer push / clone urls. [[User:Wade|Wade]] 01:34, 14 January 2009 (UTC)</strike>

==Development Tasks==
* Help SoaS and other distro packagers to get as many activities as possible working on plain Sugar (outside the XO software environment).
*: See [[ActivityTeam/ActivityStatus]] for a list of projects that need to ported and/or tested.
* Clean up activities. Bring .POT files up to date, check MANIFEST is correct, publish latest version to downloads.sugarlabs.org.
*: See [[ActivityTeam/ActivityStatus]] for a list of projects that need to cleaned up.
* Build a list of "Rescue" activities: Ones which have not been worked on in a while but are close to being usable.
* Build a list of "Help Wanted" activities: Great ideas or existing projects which need to be sugarized.
* Generate spec for Web, SWF activities and deliver to DevelopmentTeam.

==Activity Feature Requests==
This section is for feature requests for specific activities. As requests, there can be no guarantee as to the order in which we will process them, but we will do our best.

If you are a new activity developer, there are many small tasks here which would be a great way to get introduced to the project.

===Turtle Art===
* Move the show/hide blocks, erase, and stop buttons to the toolbar
* Add run and step buttons to the same toolbar
* Reconfigure audio initialization so that it only happens when TA starts up or gets sent to the background
* Don't let bricks get lost off the screen
* Add a special stack "hat" for "main" (tied to the run button above)
* Merge with TA with sensors.

Activity Team/Project Ideas

Cjb:

[[Category:Activity]]

== New activity requests ==

* Blogging activity for Sugar.
* Blog aggregator for a mesh network.
* Create Drupal/Wordpress sugar compatible themes and modules.
* Sugarize PiTiVi, uses pygtk and gstreamer so seems like something quite doable.
* Competitive/collaborative "trivia" activity -- there's a synchronized countdown, and then you get points for answering questions correctly and quickly. Could use groupthink for scoring, maybe share data with assimilate/memorize? [[User:Cjb|Cjb]] 21:31, 26 January 2009 (UTC)

== Activity HIG ==

* tweak OLPC HIG's sections [[User:Alsroot|alsroot]] 14:01, 17 January 2009 (UTC)
** what screen resolution should be minimal for activities? [[User:Alsroot|alsroot]] 14:01, 17 January 2009 (UTC)

== Infrastructure ==

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

== sugar-widgets ==

Create new project or placing to sugar-toolkit follow widgets:
* tempo slider from TamTam activities
** implementation [http://git.sugarlabs.org/projects/cartoon-builder/repos/mainline/blobs/screen_resolution_independent/Utils.py cartoon-builder/Utils.py]
* volume slider from TamTam activities
* scrolled panel with optional arrows
** implementation [http://git.sugarlabs.org/projects/cartoon-builder/repos/mainline/blobs/screen_resolution_independent/Utils.py cartoon-builder/Utils.py]

Marketing Team/Events/Sugarcamp Boston 2008/hackathon

2008-11-17T23:18:23Z

Cjb: /* Attendees */

== Details ==

* Monday, November 17, 2008
* 6:30pm - 10pm (we will order food together at the beginning; bring your own $ for dinner)
* One Broadway, Cambridge MA 02142 (at the corner of Broadway and 3rd, by the Kendall T stop)
* Call [[User:Mchua|Mel Chua]] to be let in when you arrive - 847.970.8484

== About ==

=== For developers ===

This is a "new Sugar coders hackfest" evening, where people can come to learn about making Activities - bring a project you want to work on, and we'll have people from the core Sugar team around to help, teach, answer questions, run impromptu tutorials, and make tools/patches as needed to ease the entry route for new coders.

=== For non-developers ===

We're also looking for people who ''won't'' be coding that night to sprint with David Farning on community infrastructure setup. Problems to tackle include building a Newbie Welcome Wagon package, handling [http://dev.laptop.org/ticket/8630 licensing] of both content and Activity bundles, documentation and testing systems, and more.

== Attendees ==

Sign up if you're coming, so we know how many to expect- tentatives and drop-ins are ok, but make things much harder to plan for. Also let us know (in parentheses) what you'll be doing!

* Marco (on-site mentor, Sugar Activity development)
* Tomeu (on-site mentor, Sugar Activity development)
* [[User:Dfarning|Dfarning]] (on-site mentor, infrastructure and documentation)
* [[User:Mchua|Mchua]] (hackathon coordinator, working on Larry, a language-learning Activity)
* Yifan + others from Olin, may drop by to check things out
* Owen Williams (PenguinTV, may be a little late)
* Tom Boyle (StarChart, focusing on localization)
* [[User:Wade|Wade]] (Sugar Activity development)
* Brian Jordan (Sugar Activity development, Pippy love)
* Amanda Peyton (MIT Sloan project looking at the SugarLabs organizational structure)
* Ryan Kabir (new development contributor to Sugar, looking for a place to start)
* Brendan Powers (new contributor,looking for something simple to get used to the project)
* Chris Ball (from 7:30)

== Stuff to hack on ==

* Spreadsheet activity: http://lists.laptop.org/pipermail/sugar/2008-February/004225.html
* Mind mapping activity: http://lists.laptop.org/pipermail/olpc-sur/2008-November/001173.html
* Make the Sugar shell react to changes in the ~/Activities dir using inotify.
* A quiz game with competitive collaboration (cjb) -- e.g. generate arithmetic problems, have a shared countdown, and then the first person to answer correctly gets the most points. Generalizable to quizes about non-math stuff too.

== To do ==

Let [[User:Mchua|Mchua]] (mel at laptop dot org) know if you can help!

* <s>Get a location with wifi, projectors, and ready access to food (which probably means "order pizza, then ask everyone if they can chip in a few dollars when it comes).</s>
* <s>make invitations and send them out</s>
* <s>find some way to make nametags for everybody</s> (Actually, we probably won't need these - we're small enough.)
* make sure that the location gets set up (chairs, tables, etc.) and taken down/cleaned-up afterwards
* send thank-you follow up emails after the event encouraging people to come to the rest of Sugarcamp

Talk:Oversight Board 2008 Candidates

2008-08-19T16:15:23Z

Cjb: /* Chris Ball (cjb) */

Curious - how does one vote for an 'alias' (FFM). Hey may be known to OLPC/Sugar folks, but nothing identifies him as an actual person....

== Background on the candidates ==

===Aaron Kaplan (aaronk)===

Aaron is the founder and an active member of OLPC Austria, where he has, among other projects, ported Sugar to the Classmate PC. Aaron is a programmer; he studied maths and computer sciences in Vienna, and is the founder of the funkfeuer wireless community mesh network.

===Ben Schwartz (bemasc) ===

Ben is a graduate of MIT with degrees in “Physics with Electrical Engineering” and “Mathematics with Computer Science”. He is a PhD program in the department of Biophysics at Harvard University. Ben has been an active contributor to Sugar and written some key Sugar activities, including the Distance Activity.

===Bernie Innocenti (bernie) ===

Bernie is a volunteer working for the Sugar Labs team. Until February 2008, he was a full time volunteer developer at OLPC. His job was hacking X, the base Fedora OS, the Linux kernel, some i18n and input work. Later on, until April 2008, he was CTO of OLPC Europe and traveled around to present the OLPC project to government officials and dignitaries. Bernie has been instrumental in helping set up the Sugar Labs back-end infrastructure and spent the summer in Nepal, working with teachers and the FOSS community.

===Chris Ball (cjb)===

Chris is a software engineer at OLPC. He is primarily responsible for OLPC's power-management work, but has also worked on the automated testing tinderbox and most anything else that comes along. Chris is the author of the Pippy activity, as well as Words and WikiBrowse. Chris has been a steadfast supporter of FOSS as a foundational principle for Sugar and OLPC.

===Chris Leonard (cjl) ===

Chris is a PhD biomedical researcher whose responsibilities include running an IT shop at a small pharmaceutical company with some very specialized requirements for blending IT and science. Chris is interested in making a personal contribution to the educational effort through content development in the field of health. He has found a wealth of opportunities to do something useful and rewarding and has worked to leverage what he has learned to assist others in getting involved with the project. Much of this has taken the form of behind-the-scenes work as a wiki sysop on both the OLPC and Sugar Lab wikis, working to lower language barriers (e.g. creating and deploying the GoogleTrans-xx templates for "reverse localization"), and reaching out to folks from deployments via IRC, wiki or e-mail to help them get their stories on the wiki. Most recently he has been working as a member of the "support gang". Chris is interested in the educational goals of (lower case) olpc and how best to achieve those goals and believes that the separation of software development (Sugar Labs) and hardware marketing/deployment (OLPC) is a "good thing" and that with careful nurturing, the whole will become greater than the sum of the parts alone.

Chris would like to contribute his expertise in working with and advising non-profit organizations (various patient advocacy groups), government agencies (external reviewer/advisor National Institutes of Health, Roadmap Initiative) and software development operations (member of the Scientific Advisory Board of a scientific software firm, Artuslabs). Chris has a great deal of experience in acting as an "honest broker", analyzing the roles and needs of various stakeholders and designing and implementing strategic plans to achieve optimal results. Chris believes he has the necessary expertise to advise SUgar Labs on a wide scope of issues that it faces in this initial stage of it's growth.

===Christian Marc Schmidt (christianschmidt) ===

Christian is the lead user-interface/graphic designer from Pentagram working on Sugar. Christian has worked closely with Marco, Eben, and the original Sugar team for two years and continues to help us work though the numerous design challenges we face. For those of you who don't know it, Pentagram is one of the leading graphic design houses in the world. A sample of Christian's work can be found at http://www.christianmarcschmidt.com/.

===Christoph Derndorfer (christophd) ===

Christoph is the co-editor of olpcnews.com and a member of OLPC Austria. His main focus of contributions to Sugar (and OLPC) is in the areas of documentation (activity handbook / booksprint) and community outreach / presentations (chemnitzer linuxtage, cebit, austrian computer association, various austrian universities, olpc grassroots bootcamp).

===David Farning (dfarning) ===

David's interests include community building. He is perhaps the most active contributor to the Sugar Labs wiki; he is starting a Sugar BugSquad and writing an API tutorial. He has been establishing relationships with Skolelinux, Edubuntu, and Fedora edu as well as reaching out to educational communities and embedded communities.
David is creating activities.sugarlabs.org based on addons.mozilla.org; his initial a.m.o patchset is pending review by Mozilla.

===Edward Cherlin (mokurai)===

Mokurai is founder of Earth Treasury, an NGO to link schools around the world for education and business. He volunteers at OLPC as a volunteer coordinator, localization administrator (Khmer and Kreyòl), and general knoker (an especially Yiddish know-all, the kind who did math homework in pen), based on:
* his training as a mathematician, classroom teacher, amateur musician and linguist, philosopher, and Buddhist priest; plus
* his lifetime of encyclopedic reading, many years in high-tech market research and technical writing, and work in Unicode and Free Software.

Mokurai's vision for the XO is to End Poverty at a Profit all around. The mission is whatever planning, funding, research, development, and deployment is needed to make that happen, with a focus on Management by Exception in order to keep on top of what is needed in changing circumstances.
Sugar Labs has the Sugar software as its main focus, but needs to work with others on the rest of the mission. We should raise substantial funding to support these substantive projects, up to the point at which they can become self-sustaining, in the manner of the Grameen Group of companies.

These are the principal elements of the mission today:
* Extend the OLPC and Sugar Labs work with evidence-based education research, curriculum development, and the redesign of textbooks. We must take maximum advantage of software on the XO, and of the best research that we can find or carry out on how children learn, and what is of greatest value for them to learn.
* Engineer appropriate solutions for electricity and Internet connections in even the poorest and most remote villages in every target environment, in collaboration with university Schools of Engineering, Engineers Without Borders, and others, in order to maximize the usefulness of XOs to children.
* Work with microfinance organizations to place these electricity and Internet solutions along with XOs. The intention is to jump-start local economies by selling modest amounts of surplus power and bandwidth, and thereby raise the money to pay off the original loans and make further investments.
* Create an R&D consortium to further all of these goals and whatever else turns out to be necessary. We know that issues of economics, governance, social attitudes, and sustainability are important. What do we need to know, and how can we come to know it? What can we learn from the children themselves, and from teachers, parents, and others?
* Tap into Barack Obama's plans to increase global development aid by $25 billion annually, including a $2 billion Global Education Fund; into the UN Millennium Development Goals program; Make Poverty History; and all of the other initiatives that share our vision, even if they don't know it yet.
* Save as many languages and cultures as possible from extinction by teaching the children how to record them.
* Link children, schools, and communities together around the world in a safe manner for collaborative development.
* Teach children how to create sustainable international businesses together using their new knowledge and skills.

===Greg Dekoenigsberg (gregdek) ===

I am the co-founder and co-leader of Red Hat's community architecture team. As such, I am responsible for driving Red Hat's strategic investments in open source community development. I was the founding chairman of the Fedora Project board, and was primarily responsible for building Fedora's governance model. Currently, I serve as full-time primary liaison between Red Hat, the Fedora community, and the OLPC project, and is working actively to increase visible community participation within the OLPC project.

My priority for Sugar is to make it the desktop of choice for the "altruistic developer" -- the savvy tech geek who is willing to live the Sugar experience. Sugar will improve rapidly when great free software developers are using it every day and feeling its growing pains directly. To that end, Jeremy Katz, Robin Norwood and I (all of Red Hat) have already proposed a feature in Fedora 10 to <a href="http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/Sugar">make Sugar one of the login options in gdm.</a>

The absolute critical path for Sugar's success is to bring developers to the table. In Fedora, this is where I excelled, and I believe I can create the same results for Sugar.

===Henry Hardy (hhardy) ===

Henry is the system administrator for OLPC. Henry's chief priorities for Sugar Labs are:
# Improve Sugar as a tool for learning and communicating; creating ideas, love and joy.
# Remain independent of undue corporate or government control or influence.
# Foster a community with substantive and constructive discussion.
# Not let egotism and pride get in the way of humbleness and consideration for others.
# Improve the build and release process.
# Put a computer in the hands of everyone.
# Use education to create a community to foster peace, tolerance, creativity and love.

===Hernán Pachas (hpachas) ===

Hernán is the technical lead for the OLPC Peru deployment, the world's largest deployment of Sugar. He is an advocate for FOSS and founded a FOSS community at his university in Peru (USMP-LUG). Hernán is an Ambassador of Fedora for PERU, Red Hat Certified Technician, and Director of Operations of LPI Inc.

===Iain Davidson (ixo) ===

Iain is a support volunteer from Bellingham, WA, USA. He has been one of the cornerstones of the OLPC support team, very active in the wiki, and has played a major role in testing and support for a number of Sugar activities, including: elements, xo-get, XoIRC, Speak, DrGeo, Clock, Doom, Colors! He has worked in support of Firefox, Opera, rsync , mc, thunar, xeyes, xawtv on the XO and has a number of activities in various stages of development. Iain also runs an XO repair center.

===Marco Pesenti Gritti (marcopg) ===

Marco is the lead software developer for the Sugar project and is personally responsible for ~40% of the Sugar commits. Marco works for Red Hat and is based in Italy, outside of Milan. Marco is one of the founders of Sugar Labs.

===Martin Dengler (mtd) ===

Martin is a professional programmer who got an XO to support the OLPC project and have a laptop for daily use. He has been an activity contributor, not just to Sugar, but to project components such as power management, kernel, wireless, and various Sugar activities. A search for mtd in trac gives a good indication of the breadth of his work.

===Pablo Flores (pflores) ===

Pablo has worked for Plan Ceibal in Uruguay (the OLPC deployment in Uruguay) since it began, in some official and some unofficial capacities. Pablo has a comprehensive “field look” on how Sugar is used in schools and how developers communities can contribute. Part of his experience is documented in the blog: proyecto-ceibal.blogspot.com; some of its articles have been translated by volunteers in olpc-ceibal.blogspot.com.

Pablo is currently working on two research projects related to Plan Ceibal and the 1:1 educational model:
* Proyecto Flor de Ceibo with Universidad de la República.
* ILATIS (Social Impact of 1:1 projects in Latin America and the Caribbean) with Fundación DESEM, within an international research team supported by IDRC-CRDI.

He recently produced the book "Ceibal en la sociedad del siglo XXI". He is organizing a second Ceibal Jam!, engaging local communities to develop software for Plan Ceibal.

===Rabi Karmacharya (rabikarma) ===

===Rafael Ortiz (dirakx) ===

Rafael has been a volunteer for OLPC project for two years and has worked in different aspects of OLPC and Sugar, including localization, documentation, wireless networks, peripherals, testing, QA, and development porting Sugar software to Debian. Rafael is the Spanish localization administrator, and is list administration for OLPC colombia, OLPC sur and OLPC open.

Rafael is working in deployments for Colombia.

It is his interest that Sugar can be adopted by other hardware platforms besides the XO and that Sugar Labs does not lose focus on its pedagogical bases and feedback from deployments: the educational side of the project has to be the fundamental to all other processes, and that work must be done in union with countries.

Rafael asserts that although the XO/Sugar hardware-software combination is optimal, we can be more diverse by trying to get to other hardware platforms (in order to reach more children), but the important part is that Sugar must remain an educational software.

===Simon Schampijer (erikos) ===

Simon is a software engineer under contract to OLPC. Simon has been a major contributor to Sugar, including components such as sugar-control-panel; he is the maintainer of the Browse Activity and has contributed to many other activities, including much of the work on music.

===Tomeu Vizoso (tomeu)===

Tomeu is a Sugar developer under contract with OLPC. He works mostly in the Sugar shell and the Journal, but also maintains the DataStore. Tomeu is one of the major contributors to Sugar and is a founding member of Sugar Labs.

===Walter Bender (walter)===

Walter is a founding member of Sugar Labs. He had been a founding member of OLPC, where he served as president of software and content. He left OLPC in order to build an independent home for the Sugar project, bringing it out from a narrow place. His aspirations for Sugar Labs are to bring a great learning experience to children and infect the education community with the spirit and culture of FOSS.

Development Team/Meetings

2008-03-04T17:23:52Z

Cjb: add faster

==About==

* Quick update about what we have been working on and eventually the problems we have run into.
* Discussion about the implementation details of tickets we are planning to work on. Figure out how to split up the work and who should be owning the various parts.
* Questions from activity authors about specific aspects of the platform and more in general on how to better integrate their activity in Sugar. Report about problems they run into.
* Help out new contributors to figure out where to start. Point out the tickets we need help with, discuss with them the implementation.

==When and where==
* weekly
* tusday
* 17.00(UTC)
* irc.freenode.net, #olpc-meeting
Every tuesday on irc.freenode.net, in the #olpc-meeting channel. Since people from the outside might not have the time to join weekly we will alternate in big and small meetings. The big meeting will try to be more general to allow to get the big picture. The first meeting in 2008 (19th February) was a big meeting so the 26th February will be a small one and so on... The time is not well defined yet but for now we scheduled it at 17.00(UTC). To convert UTC to your local time, take a look at http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Infrastructure/UTCHowto or run: date -d '2008-02-18 17:00 UTC'

==Who==

The meeting is mainly targeted to Sugar core and activity developers, but everyone interested is welcome to join. It's primary purpose is to try to open up a bit the development, make it more transparent and allow the community to participate more easily. For when to join best see 'When and Where'.

Development Team/Jhbuild

2007-04-29T04:02:32Z

Cjb: remove build-base, since it doesn't work anymore.

One of the easiest ways to install [[Sugar]] is to use [[sugar-jhbuild]].

Sugar-jhbuild will automatically download the latest of Sugar's dependencies as well as Sugar itself directly from their source repositories, rather than relying on source packages that may have become stale. Below are generic instructions on how to use sugar-jhbuild to get up and running with Sugar.

'''Note:''' Some Linux distributions may need or have special procedures; you can check the pages on [[:Category:Installing Sugar|installing Sugar]] to see if they are available.

==Checkout sugar-jhbuild==

In a suitable directory, execute

git-clone git://dev.laptop.org/sugar-jhbuild

If you need to update sugar-jhbuild to a new version later, use

git pull

in the same directory.

==Build sugar base system and its dependencies==

Change directory and start the build.

cd sugar-jhbuild
./sugar-jhbuild update
./sugar-jhbuild build

For the base packages , you may be able to use the binary packages from your GNU distribution instead of building them from scratch. Check the [[:Category:Installing Sugar|Installing]] or [[:Category:Linux distributions|Linux]] categories for specific distro info.

==Run Sugar==

This command launches the Sugar emulator:

./sugar-jhbuild run

To exit the emulator, press Alt-Q.

== Run an individual activity ==

Within the sugar shell (./sugar-jhbuild shell), this command launches an individual activity for testing (from the [http://mailman.laptop.org/pipermail/sugar/2007-March/001720.html mailing list]):

sugar-activity [bundle name]

== Other commands ==

JHBuild has several other commands that can be useful for development. You can get an overview with:

./sugar-jhbuild --help-commands

A useful sequence of commands for building Sugar, from the [http://mailman.laptop.org/pipermail/sugar/2007-February/001352.html Sugar mailing list]:

./sugar-jhbuild update
./sugar-jhbuild build
./sugar-jhbuild run

== Customize ==

To customize the build create a configuration file, named .olpc.jhbuildrc, in your home directory.

=== Write access to the repositories ===

If you have write access to the repositories you can add:
repos['gnome.org'] = ':ext:marco@cvs.gnome.org:/cvs/gnome'
repos['mozilla.org'] = ':ext:marco%gnome.org@cvs.mozilla.org:/cvsroot'
repos['git.laptop.org'] = 'git+ssh://dev.laptop.org/git/artwork'
