!valign=top | [[File:python-logo.gif|90px|thumb|center]] ||valign=top width="15%" |Port to Python3 ||valign=top width="15%" | Walter Bender and Daniel Narvaez||align=left valign=top|<br />
;Brief explanation: There are many reasons to port Sugar to Python 3, not the least being its support for internationalization (unicode) is greatly improved over Python 2 (Very important as we have users in >100 languages). There is a good discussion of strategies [http://docs.python.org/3/howto/pyporting.html here]. The first task will be to work with the core developer team to decide on a strategy: writing Python 2/3 compatible source or a pure port. Once that decision is made, the remainder of the work will be to do the port itself. Developing a robust test suite is a must.<br />
;Expected results: Support for Python 3 in Sugar Core and a Porting Guide for Sugar Activities.<br />
;Knowledge prerequisite: Strong background in Python<br />

!valign=top | [[File:python-logo.gif|90px|thumb|center]] ||valign=top width="15%" |Activity Unit Tests||valign=top width="15%" | Walter Bender and Daniel Narvaez||align=left valign=top|<br />
;Brief explanation: While we have been vigilant about developing tests for most of Sugar core, we have only just begun to scratch the surface regarding test suites for Sugar activities. This project is to develop unit and UI test suites for all of the [http://download.sugarlabs.org/sources/sucrose/fructose/ "Fructose"] activities &ndash; those activities that are shipped as part of every Sugar distribution.<br />
;Expected results: A suite of unit and UI tests for the Fructose Activities and a Testing Guide for Sugar Activities.<br />
;Knowledge prerequisite: Strong background in Python, GTK3<br />
|-<br />
!valign=top | [[File:JS-logo.png|90px|thumb|center]] || valign=top |JavaScript Collaboration for Sugar || valign=top | Manuel Quiñones ||align=left valign=top|<br />
;Brief explanation: Sugar has promoted JavaScript/HTML5 to be a first-class development language, on par with Python. Lots of work to do to make this ready for prime time. Specific to this project is the development of a collaboration model that includes both the mechanisms for identifying potential collaborators and the mechanisms for sharing between activities. The first step is to agree upon a collaboration strategy with the developer team; then implement that strategy.<br />
;Expected results: Rich, intuitive collaboration between JavaScript Activities and an update Guide for Developing Sugar Activities in JavaScript.<br />
;Knowledge prerequisite: Strong background in JavaScript<br />
|-<br />
!valign=top | [[File:Cordova_sugar.png|90px|center|thumb]] || valign=top | Cordova/PhoneGap container for Sugar || valign=top | Lionel Laské ||align=left valign=top |<br />
;Brief explanation: The idea is to allow Sugar Web Activities to use device dependent features. In this objective, the project will be to transform Sugar into a Cordova/PhoneGap container and to implement major PhoneGap features. Shortly, the project is to add Sugar as new supported platform for Cordova/PhoneGap. Lists of Sugar features that could be exposed to Sugar Web Activities using Cordova/PhoneGap will be: Camera, Audio/Video capture, Accelerometer, Connection, Events, File, Globalization, Media. During the project, the student will also have to demonstrate its work by writing some sample activities using device features. Examples of activities include a Record-like activity or a Level-Tool-like activity.<br />
;Expected results: Rich media and sensor support for JavaScript Activities, Sample activities and an update to the Guide for Developing Sugar Activities in JavaScript to reflect the new APIs.<br />
;Knowledge prerequisite: Strong background in JavaScript, don't be put off by Python.<br />
|-<br />
!valign=top | [[File:Microphone.svg|90px|center|thumb]] || valign=top | Voice Interface || valign=top | Martin Abente Lahaye ||align=left valign=top|<br />
;Brief explanation: Speech-recognition technologies are interaction mechanisms that, nowadays, have evolved from "alternative" to "extended". Proof of this is the proliferation of such technologies in a wide range of domains. From smartphones assistants, medical-record transcriptions, smart cars, and TV command controls to many others. In this regard, not much have been seen in the education domain. This is could be due the fact that there is still a missing glue between the speech-recognition technologies and educational content developers. This project is about filling the gap &ndash;within the Sugar Learning Platform.<br />
;Expected results:<br />
* put together a speech-recognition engine that allow us to deploy it in offline scenarios (i.e., using PocketSphinx and Voxforge projects);<br />
* define a general architecture that will allow us to provide high-level speech-recognition functionality to the Sugar core and activities (i.e., exposing this engine as a DBus service);<br />
* finding acceptable solutions that will allow us to add new content and being able to handle different languages.<br />
;Knowledge prerequisite: Strong background in Python; some experience with either PocketSphinx or Voxforge<br />
|-<br />
!valign=top | [[File:Headwand.jpg|90px|center|thumb]] || valign=top | Assistive Interface || valign=top | Andres Aguirre ||align=left valign=top |<br />
;Brief explanation: Alternative input devices allow individuals to control their computers through means other than a standard keyboard or pointing device. Examples include smaller or larger keyboards, eye-gaze pointing devices, and sip-and-puff systems controlled by breathing. Using a base sensor package, the goal of this project is to provide an alternative physical-sensor interface to the Sugar desktop for people with limited motor control. The project will require an intervention into both the Sugar toolkit and Sugar core to ensure that the necessary hooks for ATSPI. The first task will be to survey the Sugar suite to find holes in the UI; the second task is to develop a work plan in conjunction with the Sugar developer community; the third task is to implement that plan; finally, arrange with the mentor to deploy the results with our target audience for feedback.<br />
;Expected results: Expanded coverage of ATSPI throughout Sugar Core; a working prototype that can be tested in the field; an Assistive Technology Guide for Sugar Activity Developers<br />
;Knowledge prerequisite: Strong background in Python, GTK3, and Atspi; some electronics background would also be useful.<br />
|-<br />
!valign=top | [[File:Bulletin-board.jpg|90px|center|thumb]] || valign=top | Bulletin Board || valign=top | Walter Bender ||align=left valign=top |<br />
;Brief explanation: While it seems the prevailing notion of collaboration in the classroom is for the teacher to be able to a service such as VNC to share a desktop with a student, it is evident from computer-supported collaborative work outside of the classroom that such models provide little if any enhancements to productivity or learning. Our approach in Sugar has always been to allow our users to collaborate directly on tasks &ndash; be it writing a document together; sharing bookmarks while browsing; or sharing code snippets while programming. That said, often times, a large project involves multiple tools and multiple resources to be shared among a group. This project is to provide an uber-structure for collaboration &ndash; the Bulletin Board &ndash; where a group can share resources in a persistent manner as they work on a project together. One aspect it a shared, persistent "clipboard" of artifacts being used collectively within the project; another, illustrated on the left, is a chat channel that can be overlaid on top of activities to enable targeted discussions.<br />
;Expected results: Two new Sugar toolkit services: a share, persistent clipboard; and a chat overlay onto any shared activity.<br />
;Knowledge prerequisite: Strong background in Python and Gtk3<br />
|-<br />
!valign=top | || valign=top | Social Help || valign=top | Martin Abente, Paul Cotton, Walter Bender||align=left valign=top |<br />
;Brief explanation: Last summer we had a GSoC project to implement system-wide help for Sugar activities. It is now possible to get context-dependent help anywhere within the Sugar system by simply typing Ctrl-H or by clicking on the help button on the Sugar 'frame". This summer, we'd like to add a social component to our help. Using the same mechanism for determining content, we'd like to offer our users a channel for topical discussions. The most simple way to do with would be to launch them into topical IRC channels. However we'd like to also explore tools such as [http://www.discourse.org/about/ "Discourse"]. The first step will be to determine a platform for the social help in discussion with the developer community; step two will be to implement the social help mechanism in Sugar.<br />
;Expected results: A system-wide mechanism for jumping into a forum for topical discussions about Sugar and Sugar activities; a service that can be dropped onto a classroom server for circumstances where Internet access is not available or permitted.<br />
;Knowledge prerequisite: Strong background in Python and webservices<br />

!valign=top | [[File:Turtle-3d.png|90px|thumb|center]] || valign=top width="15%" | Turtle Art 3D || valign=top width="15%" | Walter Bender, Antonio Battro, Horacio Reggini||align=left valign=top|<br />
;Brief explanation: Sugar is lacking any 3D programming environments. This project would be to develop such an environment. There is a rich program in 3D Logo developed by Horacio Reggini [http://www.horacioreggini.com.ar/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/IdeasYFormas.pdf]. The specific project would be to write an extension to [[Activities/Turtle Art|Turtle Blocks]] to encompass Reggini's ideas.<br />
;Expected results: A new Turtle Art plugin that adds basic 3D transforms to Turtle Blocks (e.g., setxyz, pitch, roll, yaw); camera and lighting models; surface texture mapping; and a rich set of example projects. A bonus would be a plugin for generating objects for MineCraft.<br />
;Knowledge prerequisite: Python and some 3D graphics (3D transform) experience.<br />
|-<br />
!valign=top | [[File:MusicKeyboard.png|90px|thumb|center]] || valign=top | Music Suite || valign=top |Gonzalo Odiard ||align=left valign=top|<br />
;Brief explanation: Sugar's primary music offering, the TamTam suite, is woefully inadequate with touch interfaces. The goal of this project is to rewrite the suite to use the underlying mechanisms demonstrated in the touch-friendly Music Keyboard activity.<br />
;Expected results: Touch-friendly replacements for TamTamMini, TamTamJam, TamTamEdit, and TamTamSynthesizerLab.<br />
;Knowledge prerequisite: Python and digital audio experience (CSound a real plus).<br />
|-<br />
!valign=top | [[File:Camera.svg|90px|thumb|center]] || valign=top |Video Editing Suite || valign=top |Gonzalo Odiard ||align=left valign=top|<br />
;Brief explanation: Sugar need a simple activity to process video. The interface should be simple and need run in a device with low computational and storage resources as the OLPC XO or Intel Classmate. Limited screen real estate must also be a consideration.<br />
;Expected results: A new Sugar activity for rich media editing and an extension to the Sugar toolkit for generating video from data within existing Sugar activities such as FotoToons and Portfolio.<br />
;Knowledge prerequisite: Strong background in Python, GTK and GStreamer.<br />
|-<br />
!valign=top | [[File:Butia.jpg|90px|center|thumb]] || valign=top |Assistive Robots || valign=top |Alan Alguar ||align=left valign=top|<br />
;Brief explanation: In conjunction with the Assitive Interface project, the goal of this project is to provide a physical sensor interface to the Sugar robots suite ([http://activities.sugarlabs.org/en-US/sugar/addon/4434 Turtle Bots]) for people with limited motor control.<br />
;Expected results: We have access to a target population of children with special needs that would love to work with robotics. We expect an adaption of the Turtle Bots (Turtle Blocks) interface to support programming through a simple pointing device to be deployed with this population and to solicit feedback on the intervention.<br />
;Knowledge prerequisite: Strong background in Python programming<br />
|-<br />
!valign=top | || valign=top |GST-1.0|| valign=top |Walter Bender ||align=left valign=top|<br />
;Brief explanation: We ported Sugar to GTK-3 several years ago. However, we have yet to completely deprecate our GTK-2 branch because there are still a number of core activities that have not been ported to GTK-3, e.g., Turtle Blocks, Measure, and Record. The reason that these activities have not been ported is because of some dependencies on GST-0.10. Specifically, the code associated with accessing raw data streams from audio devices that are then used to feed these activities. This project is to remove the GST-0.10 dependencies and replace them with GST-1.0 libraries. While seemingly trivial, is quite challenging since the equivalent libraries do not exist in GST-1.0. It will require writing some new GST sinks and providing introspection support in Python.<br />
;Expected results: Elimination of all GST-0.10 code from Sugar activities; deprecation of the Gtk-2 branch<br />
;Knowledge prerequisite: Strong background in C and Python programming, GTK3, and GST 1.0<br />

!valign=top | || valign=top |Hack a Stuffed Animal|| valign=top |Stephen Thomas||align=left valign=top|<br />
;Brief explanation: Many children can not communicate verbally whether due to nonverbal autism or some other factor. While there are many catalogs and websites with adaptive equipment and software but the prices are high. There is a OLPC deployment in Uruguay where a student uses his stuffed animal as an input device for using an XO and Etoys. We would like to build on this to make it easier and lower cost or these children and their parents to communicate and use computers. The software must be FOSS and the hardware to hack a Stuffed Animal could potentially repurpose old keyboards or under $10 by repurposing a used USB game controller (free if kids donate their old ones). <br />
<br />
In this project a student would design and document how to hack a stuffed animal to be used as an input device similar to a joystick or arrow and a few other keys to allow a nonverbal child to use their favorite stuffed animal as an input device.<br />
<br />
;Expected results: Documentation and parts lists for Hacking a Stuffed Animal into an input device. Some basic demonstration programs to use the input device with Etoys, TurtleArt etc.<br />
;Knowledge prerequisite: Maker skills to Hack a stuffed animal; Etoys (If student knows Scratch, they can learn the skills needed in Etoys for this project)<br />
|-<br />
!valign=top | || valign=top |PECS for Non-Verbal Communication|| valign=top |Stephen Thomas||align=left valign=top|<br />
;Brief explanation: As noted in the Hack a Stuffed Animal project, many children can not communicate verbally whether due to nonverbal autism or some other factor. In this project a student would a student would design a set of picture boards that could be navigated using a joystick or arrow keys and arrow and few other keys. The project would also allow a parent or teacher to simply add and re-arrange pictures using a webcam, imported pictures or simple drawings that can be made using Etoys (Etoys runs on Linux, Windows and Mac OS and is one of the core applications in Sugar).<br />
<br />
;Expected results: Working Etoys program where a student could navigate a [http://activities.sugarlabs.org/en-US/sugar/addon/4434 Picture Exchange Communication System] (PECS) to communicate with others. Also the ability for parents and caregivers can modify the PECS elements with little to no training.<br />
;Knowledge prerequisite: Maker skills; Etoys (If student knows Scratch, they can learn the skills needed in Etoys for this project)}<br />
<br />

!valign=top | || valign=top |Etoys touch UI|| valign=top |Rita Freudenberg||align=left valign=top|<br />
;Brief explanation: The objective of this project is to adapt the Etoys user interface for touch gestures such as rotate, scale, and such. Currently, Etoys is very dependent on the user to interact with Morphs with the cursor. Given the popularity of multitouch devices this represents a severe disadvantage.<br />
Bert Freudenberg has done some initial work adapting the Squeak Virtual Machine and Morphic to support multitouch events [1]. As he stated, the UI would need to be improved (or maybe even redesigned from scratch) before we can deliver this to kids.<br />
In this project we don't propose the complete redesign of Etoys UI (which we think it would take more than 3 months to complete) but at least a new implementation of Morphic interaction that takes into account multitouch gestures.<br />
<br />

;Expected results: new implementation of Morphic interaction that takes into account multitouch gestures<br />
;Knowledge prerequisite: Squeak programming skills<br />
<br />

!valign=top | || valign=top |Physical Etoys XO bundle|| valign=top |Ricardo Moran||align=left valign=top|<br />
;Brief explanation: The objective of this project is to finish the bundling of Physical Etoys as a Sugar activity for the XO computers. The student will need to make sure all Physical Etoys modules work correctly in Linux and specifically on the XO laptop. This would involve porting some libraries, dealing with platform-specific issues and wrap all the necessary files in an Activity bundle.<br />
<br />

=== Turtle Art nutrition ===<br />
<br />
Working with the maintainer of [[Activities/TurtleArt|Turtle Blocks]] to further develop the prototype [[Activities/TurtleArt#Nutrition|Turtle Nutrition plug-in]] into a stand-alone activity. In its current state, Turtle Nutrition is a plug-in to the Turtle Blocks application. The plug-in aims to raise awareness of nutritional values through visual programming elements.<br />
<br />
[[File:Food-plugin.png|300px]]<br />
<br />
This project will involve more designing and testing than coding. But a working knowledge of Python is a must. Spanish-language skills is a plus, as we will most likely be testing the tool in one of our Latin American deployments.<br />

=== Portfolio videos ===<br />
<br />
Working with the maintainer of [[Activities/Portfolio|Portfolio]] to add a mechanism for exporting .ogv (voice over still images) of a portfolio presentation. This is a request that has come from deployments: they'd like to be able to post videos of student work, which is currently available as a slide show with audio voice-over.<br />

=== Unified journal view ===<br />
<br />
Rather than viewing the details of a Journal entry on a separate page, the idea is to make the details appear in an expandabe in-line format on the main Journal view. The look and feel would be more like Google+ or Facebook. Performance will be a major challenge.<br />
<br />

=== Sugar "Sweets" Trisquel GNU/Linux Distro ===<br />
<br />
What we need to get Sugar into classrooms and community centers is a software distribution that works "out of the box" with both Sugar and Gnome. The Trisquel GNU/Linux distribution is the most promising of the efforts to make this a reality. I'd like to pilot it in my ICT lab in Arlington, Virginia, and would love to mentor a GSOCer to hack the packages needed to make it work.<br />

=== Background image on Home View ===<br />
<br />
Since we are replacing Hippo, it is relatively trivial to add a background image to the Home View. The image could be set from the Sugar control panel.<br />
<br />
Benefit: Deployments could customize backgrounds for l12n purposes. Uses could customize the look of their machines. Background could add some structure to the Home View. The example below, just for fun, was generated in Turtle Art.<br />

=== Multi-touch Sugar ===<br />
<br />
With the advent of a number touch-enabled devices capable of running Sugar and with the port to GTK-3, it is time to take seriously the issue of multitouch. How should we be exploiting touch in the interface? How will be circumvent some of the current UI affordances that either reply on the keyboard or hover, e.g., invoking the Sugar Frame?<br />
<br />

=== Plugin support ===<br />
<br />
A number of activities, notably [[Activities/TurtleArt#Plugins|Turtle Art]], are supporting plugins -- the ability to extend features by downloading additional modules. However, [[Activities/TurtleArt#How_to_install_a_plugin|the mechanism for installing plugins]] is anything but friendly. It would be nice to design a uniform plugin bundle type and modify the activity installer to recognize this new type. Caveats include dependencies -- presumably the plugin would take care of that -- and version control -- plugins are often incumbent upon a specific version of an activity. [http://activities.sugarlabs.org ASLO hosting]] should also be considered.<br />

=== End-user modifications of Sugar source ===<br />
<br />
We have an existing mechanism for duplicating and modifying Sugar activities: a copy of the bundle can be creaed in ~/Activities, where it can be modified by the end user. We also have a mechanism for viewing the Sugar toolkit source, but no such convenient way for making changes without risking messing up the system. While it should be easy enough to make a duplicate copy in the user's home directory, and to change the Python paths to use the modified code, we need some mechanism -- presumably at boot -- to choose which version to run: the installed version or the modified version.<br />

=== Project sharing website ===<br />
Create a Project Hosting Site similar to the Scratch website where kids can share the projects they have created using various Sugar Activities. The site should foster collaboration and sharing of projects. The Web Site should be built using a free web framework so that it can be installed at deployment sites. Some features include:<br />
<br />
* Ability to engage and connect with friends and classmates using various Social Networking sites/techniques.<br />
* Ability to post projects from various Sugar Activities (ex: Turtle Blocks, Etoys, Memorize, Physics, etc.)<br />
* Separate landing pages for different audiences (kids, teachers, parents, etc)<br />
* Section to share kid created art from projects<br />
* Ability for users to create galleries (of their own projects, favorite projects, subject specific topics, etc).<br />
* Ability to have “private classroom spaces”<br />
* Tools to support community management of the site<br />
* Multi-language support<br />

Some features include:<br />
* Ability of integration of [https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/gbchcmhmhahfdphkhkmpfmihenigjmpp Chrome Remote Desktop]<br />
* Ability to share or to allow other user watch this session<br />
* Ability to scale the infrastructure onto local (virtualbox}, private (kvm) and other public clouds (http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Cloud_SIG, http://xvm.mit.edu/ or http://cloud.ubuntu.com/)<br />

=== Learn to program in Turtle Art ===<br />
<br />
In much the same way that [http://www.codecademy.com/courses/programming-intro/0#!/exercises/0] walks newbies through the basics of programming in Javascript, it would be nice to walk newbies through the basics of Turtle Art. There is already a provision within Turtle Art for programatically creating and moving blocks and executing program stacks. So it would be a matter of developing the exercises.<br />

<br />
Fototoon allow the user to work with all the boxes in the same screen, but should be good have a view to edit one box using the full screen. <br />
We need implement a way to display the comic created one box after another, maybe adding sound saved for every box.<br />
The presentation can be saved in a pdf, one box by page or exported as a video.<br />

=== Port GBrainy to Python ===<br />
<br />
GBrainy have many good logic games, but is programed in Mono. We can put Mono inside a activity but is not ideal. <br />
The games are defined in xml files, and the UI is GTK and cairo, should be not very dificult to port it to python.<br />

=== Implement a robotics plugin for Turtle Art ===<br />
<br />
Numerous efforts have been made to made a robotics plugin for TA,<br />
but these are not yet completed and rely upon specific platforms,<br />
a new plugin is needed that recognize different platforms like Arduino, Lego nxt. Lego WeDo and Butia. As this work is only for the summer I'll recommend that the plugin only supports Arduino and some Lego robotics family, The main improvement is that the plugin is fully functional, and could be integrated to upstream TA.<br />

=== Implement help mechanism for activities using Mallard ===<br />
<br />
[http://projectmallard.org/ Mallard] is a markup language that makes it easy to provide user help. It would be a nice feature to add Mallard-like help to activities, accessed through a mechanism similar to the view source mechanism. We need to sort through two issues: integration into Sugar and intergration into our i18n / L10n system.<br />

<br />
Physical Etoys is an extension to Etoys that allows the user to communicate with robots as if they were virtual objects in the computer. With Physical Etoys, it becomes posible to program real world objects (such as robots) to perform any task you want, or sense the world and use that information to control virtual objects (such as drawings on the screen). <br />
The hardware platforms currently supported by Physical Etoys include: Arduino, Lego Mindstorms Nxt, Nintendo Wiimote, Microsoft Kinect, and others.<br />
Making Physical Etoys work in Sugar would bring a platform for teaching robotics to all Sugar users, letting each kid that owns a XO transform his laptop into a robot. The port is currently half finished, but it lacks some details that need to be taken care about in order to finally publish it.<br />
<br />
Technical Details:<br />
All Physical Etoys modules should work well in Linux and specifically in the XO laptop, this can involve porting some libraries and generally dealing with platform-specific issues. Finally, Physical Etoys will have to be wrapped as an Activity bundle for the XO.<br />
<br />
Benefits to the Student:<br />
The student will learn about the inside of Physical Etoys and its communication model with the outside world, making it work seamlessly in different platforms.<br />
<br />
Benefits to the Community:<br />
The Sugar community would gain a visual programming tool for teaching robotics that is based on a currently popular platform, as it is Etoys.<br />

<br />
=== Turtle Art nutrition ===<br />
<br />
Working with the maintainer of [[Activities/TurtleArt|Turtle Blocks]] to further develop the prototype [[Activities/TurtleArt#Nutrition|Turtle Nutrition plug-in]] into a stand-alone activity. In its current state, Turtle Nutrition is a plug-in to the Turtle Blocks application. The plug-in aims to raise awareness of nutritional values through visual programming elements.<br />
<br />
[[File:Food-plugin.png|300px]]<br />
<br />
This project will involve more designing and testing than coding. But a working knowledge of Python is a must. Spanish-language skills is a plus, as we will most likely be testing the tool in one of our Latin American deployments.<br />
<br />
''Contact'': [[User:Walter]]<br />
<br />
=== Portfolio videos ===<br />
<br />
Working with the maintainer of [[Activities/Portfolio|Portfolio]] to add a mechanism for exporting .ogv (voice over still images) of a portfolio presentation. This is a request that has come from deployments: they'd like to be able to post videos of student work, which is currently available as a slide show with audio voice-over.<br />
<br />
[[File:Portfolio-Tool.png|300px]]<br />
<br />
A working knowlewdge of Python and some gstreamer skills are a must.<br />
<br />
''Contact'': [[User:Walter]]<br />
<br />
=== Unified journal view ===<br />
<br />
Rather than viewing the details of a Journal entry on a separate page, the idea is to make the details appear in an expandabe in-line format on the main Journal view. The look and feel would be more like Google+ or Facebook. Performance will be a major challenge.<br />
<br />
[[File:Journal-02.jpeg|300px]]<br />
<br />
This project requires some working knowledge of the low-level Sugar Journal and datastore code.<br />

=== Sugar "Sweets" Trisquel GNU/Linux Distro ===<br />
<br />
What we need to get Sugar into classrooms and community centers is a software distribution that works "out of the box" with both Sugar and Gnome. The Trisquel GNU/Linux distribution is the most promising of the efforts to make this a reality. I'd like to pilot it in my ICT lab in Arlington, Virginia, and would love to mentor a GSOCer to hack the packages needed to make it work.<br />
<br />

<br />
=== Background image on Home View ===<br />
<br />
Since we are replacing Hippo, it is relatively trivial to add a background image to the Home View. The image could be set from the Sugar control panel.<br />
<br />
Benefit: Deployments could customize backgrounds for l12n purposes. Uses could customize the look of their machines. Background could add some structure to the Home View. The example below, just for fun, was generated in Turtle Art.<br />
<br />
[[File:Background-spiral.png|300px]]<br />
<br />
Decent Python skills required and some familiarity with GTK.<br />
<br />
''Contact'': [[User:Walter]]<br />
<br />
=== Multi-touch Sugar ===<br />
<br />
With the advent of a number touch-enabled devices capable of running Sugar and with the port to GTK-3, it is time to take seriously the issue of multitouch. How should we be exploiting touch in the interface? How will be circumvent some of the current UI affordances that either reply on the keyboard or hover, e.g., invoking the Sugar Frame?<br />
<br />
Strong Python skills and experience with GTK-3 required.<br />
<br />

<br />
=== Plugin support ===<br />
<br />
A number of activities, notably [[Activities/TurtleArt#Plugins|Turtle Art]], are supporting plugins -- the ability to extend features by downloading additional modules. However, [[Activities/TurtleArt#How_to_install_a_plugin|the mechanism for installing plugins]] is anything but friendly. It would be nice to design a uniform plugin bundle type and modify the activity installer to recognize this new type. Caveats include dependencies -- presumably the plugin would take care of that -- and version control -- plugins are often incumbent upon a specific version of an activity. [http://activities.sugarlabs.org ASLO hosting]] should also be considered.<br />
<br />
Strong Python skills and experience with Sugar toolkit required.<br />
<br />
''Contact'': [[User:Walter]]<br />
<br />
=== End-user modifications of Sugar source ===<br />
<br />
We have an existing mechanism for duplicating and modifying Sugar activities: a copy of the bundle can be creaed in ~/Activities, where it can be modified by the end user. We also have a mechanism for viewing the Sugar toolkit source, but no such convenient way for making changes without risking messing up the system. While it should be easy enough to make a duplicate copy in the user's home directory, and to change the Python paths to use the modified code, we need some mechanism -- presumably at boot -- to choose which version to run: the installed version or the modified version.<br />
<br />
Strong Python skills and experience with Sugar toolkit required.<br />

<br />
=== Project sharing website ===<br />
Create a Project Hosting Site similar to the Scratch website where kids can share the projects they have created using various Sugar Activities. The site should foster collaboration and sharing of projects. The Web Site should be built using a free web framework so that it can be installed at deployment sites. Some features include:<br />
<br />
* Ability to engage and connect with friends and classmates using various Social Networking sites/techniques.<br />
* Ability to post projects from various Sugar Activities (ex: Turtle Blocks, Etoys, Memorize, Physics, etc.)<br />
* Separate landing pages for different audiences (kids, teachers, parents, etc)<br />
* Section to share kid created art from projects<br />
* Ability for users to create galleries (of their own projects, favorite projects, subject specific topics, etc).<br />
* Ability to have “private classroom spaces”<br />
* Tools to support community management of the site<br />
* Multi-language support<br />

=== Sugar as a Service website ===<br />
Create a Site for managing multiple "Sugar in a Browser" sessions like [https://one.treehouse.su/gar treehouse] or [http://cscott.net/junk/ta-broadway.png broadway gnome]<br />
Some features include:<br />
* Ability of integration of [https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/gbchcmhmhahfdphkhkmpfmihenigjmpp Chrome Remote Desktop]<br />
* Ability to share or to allow other user watch this session<br />
* Ability to scale the infrastructure onto local (virtualbox}, private (kvm) and other public clouds (http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Cloud_SIG, http://xvm.mit.edu/ or http://cloud.ubuntu.com/)<br />

=== Learn to program in Turtle Art ===<br />
<br />
In much the same way that [http://www.codecademy.com/courses/programming-intro/0#!/exercises/0] walks newbies through the basics of programming in Javascript, it would be nice to walk newbies through the basics of Turtle Art. There is already a provision within Turtle Art for programatically creating and moving blocks and executing program stacks. So it would be a matter of developing the exercises.<br />

=== Implement collaboration in Paint Activity ===<br />
<br />
Paint Activity does not implement collaboration yet. The easy part is send the mouse positions and draw in the different machines, but you need have the status of the different tools used, copy/paste operations and undo/redo. Another task to do is port the graphics operations to cairo.<br />
<br />
Requires familiarity with Python.<br />
<br />
''Contact'': [[User:Godiard]]<br />
<br />
=== Implement a presentation mode in Fototoon ===<br />
<br />
Fototoon allow the user to work with all the boxes in the same screen, but should be good have a view to edit one box using the full screen. <br />
We need implement a way to display the comic created one box after another, maybe adding sound saved for every box.<br />
The presentation can be saved in a pdf, one box by page or exported as a video.<br />
<br />
Requires familiarity with Python.<br />

=== Implement a robotics plugin for Turtle Art ===<br />
<br />
Numerous efforts have been made to made a robotics plugin for TA,<br />
but these are not yet completed and rely upon specific platforms,<br />
a new plugin is needed that recognize different platforms like Arduino, Lego nxt. Lego WeDo and Butia. As this work is only for the summer I'll recommend that the plugin only supports Arduino and some Lego robotics family, The main improvement is that the plugin is fully functional, and could be integrated to upstream TA.<br />

=== Implement help mechanism for activities using Mallard ===<br />
<br />
[http://projectmallard.org/ Mallard] is a markup language that makes it easy to provide user help. It would be a nice feature to add Mallard-like help to activities, accessed through a mechanism similar to the view source mechanism. We need to sort through two issues: integration into Sugar and intergration into our i18n / L10n system.<br />

= Gtk3 Hackfest 2011 =<br />
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.<br />

* Removing Hippo and other custom widgets<br />
** Do we do this before or after GTK3? Note transparent window / icon overlapping issue.<br />
* migration path to Gtk3 (do we ship two toolkits? Do we migrate the shell and the toolkit and activities at once?)<br />
** This is expected to be resolved in advance at [[Features/GTK3]].<br />
* porting Sugar's theme to gtk3 (go benzea, go!)<br />
* Port sugar-toolkit to GTK3 and release sugar-toolkit-0.95.x<br />

== Sugar Activities ==<br />
Sugar does advocate the concepts of activities - you learn through doing, so if you want more learning you want more doing. So the Sugar Labs team wants to get engaged at Linuxtag:<br />
<br />
* We will have a booth at Linuxtag, like we had last year, more information can be found below.<br />
<br />
* Sebastian Dziallas, one of the main figures behind Sugar on a Stick will be talking about leveraging communities. The talk [http://www.linuxtag.org/2010/en/program/free-conference/wednesday/details.html?talkid=382 The Open Source Way: Leveraging Communities] will be Friday, 11.06.2010, 10:30-11:00 o'clock in the room Europa II.<br />
<br />
== Sugar Booth ==<br />
Please list your availability if you are interested in helping with the booth. Or if you already know which shifts you want to take, feel free to add yourself in the second table. German skills are welcome - but not needed. Ideally a shift is two people, but given the space reserved at the booth size I think we can get away with one as well. Helping at the booth means answering questions regarding Sugar and Sugar Labs and the largest deployer of Sugar One Laptop Per Child (OLPC). Of course you don't have to be an expert in all of the areas. Furthermore we will have hardware for demoing Sugar and flashing Sugar on a Stick (Soas) on request. <br />
<br />
People helping at the booth will get a Linuxtag ticket.<br />

<br />
== Event Details ==<br />
LinuxTag is the most important place for Linux and open source software in Europe. In 2010, the 16th LinuxTag presents news for professional users, decision makers, developers, beginners and the Linux community - from '''9th until 12th June''' on the Fairground in Berlin.<br />
For more information, go to the [http://www.linuxtag.org/2010/en.html LinuxTag 2010 website].<br />
<br />
[http://www.linuxtag.org/2010/en/besucher/reiseplanung.html Here] are instructions how you get to Linuxtag.<br />

== Sugar Activities ==<br />
Sugar does advocate the concepts of activities - you learn through doing, so if you want more learning you want more doing. So the Sugar Labs team wants to get engaged at Linuxtag:<br />
<br />
* We will have a booth at Linuxtag, like we had last year, more information can be found below.<br />
<br />
* Sebastian Dziallas, one of the main figures behind Sugar on a Stick will be talking about leveraging communities. The talk [http://www.linuxtag.org/2010/en/program/free-conference/wednesday/details.html?talkid=382 The Open Source Way: Leveraging Communities] will be Friday, 11.06.2010, 10:30-11:00 o'clock in the room Europa II.<br />
<br />
== Sugar Booth ==<br />
Please list your availability if you are interested in helping with the booth. Or if you already know which shifts you want to take, feel free to add yourself in the second table. German skills are welcome - but not needed. Ideally a shift is two people, but given the space reserved at the booth size I think we can get away with one as well. Helping at the booth means answering questions regarding Sugar and Sugar Labs and the largest deployer of Sugar One Laptop Per Child (OLPC). Of course you don't have to be an expert in all of the areas. Furthermore we will have hardware for demoing Sugar and flashing Sugar on a Stick (Soas) on request. <br />
<br />
People helping at the booth will get a Linuxtag ticket.<br />

<br />
== Sugar Booth ==<br />
Please list your availability if you are interested in helping with the booth. Or if you already know which shifts you want to take, feel free to add yourself in the second table. German skills are welcome - but not needed. Ideally a shift is two people, but given the space reserved at the booth size I think we can get away with one as well. Helping at the booth means answering questions regarding Sugar and Sugar Labs and the largest deployer of Sugar One Laptop Per Child (OLPC). Of course you don't have to be an expert in all of the areas. Furthermore we will have hardware for demoing Sugar and flashing Sugar on a Stick (Soas) on request. <br />

<br />
<br />
== Event Details ==<br />
LinuxTag is the most important place for Linux and open source software in Europe. In 2010, the 16th LinuxTag presents news for professional users, decision makers, developers, beginners and the Linux community - from '''9th until 12th June''' on the Fairground in Berlin.<br />
For more information, go to the [http://www.linuxtag.org/2010/en.html LinuxTag 2010 website].<br />
<br />
[http://www.linuxtag.org/2010/en/besucher/reiseplanung.html Here] are instructions how you get to Linuxtag.<br />
<br />
== Event Organizer ==<br />
<br />
[[User:Erikos | Simon Schampijer]] will be organizing Sugar's presence at LinuxTag 2010.<br />

== Sugar Activities ==<br />
Sugar does advocate the concepts of activities - you learn through doing, so if you want more learning you want more doing. So the Sugar Labs team wants to get engaged at Linuxtag:<br />
<br />
* We will have a booth at Linuxtag, like we had last year, more information can be found below.<br />
<br />
* Sebastian Dziallas, one of the main figures behind Sugar on a Stick will be talking about leveraging communities. The talk [http://www.linuxtag.org/2010/en/program/free-conference/wednesday/details.html?talkid=382 The Open Source Way: Leveraging Communities] will be Friday, 11.06.2010, 10:30-11:00 o'clock in the room Europa II.<br />
<br />
== Sugar Booth ==<br />
Please list your availability if you are interested in helping with the booth. Or if you already know which shifts you want to take, feel free to add yourself in the second table. German skills are welcome - but not needed. Ideally a shift is two people, but given the space reserved at the booth size I think we can get away with one as well. Helping at the booth means answering questions regarding Sugar and Sugar Labs and the largest deployer of Sugar One Laptop Per Child (OLPC). Of course you don't have to be an expert in all of the areas. Furthermore we will have hardware for demoing Sugar and flashing Sugar on a Stick (Soas) on request. <br />
<br />
People helping at the booth will get a Linuxtag ticket.<br />

*Try to seek aligned interests with any of the other open and collaborative efforts like Free High School Science Texts, who's goal is to develop a set of complete textbooks for Maths, Physics and Chemistry for grades 10-12 will be completed by early 2008, all under GDFL licensing.<br />

*Interesting on-line high school physics course<br />
**http://online.cctt.org/<br />
<br />
*I also came across this rather remarkable compilation of web-pages that have posted lesson plans. The lesson plans may not all be Constructionist gems, but the people that created them and posted them to the WWW are certainly the type of educators that the OLPC effort needs to engage. <br />

<hr />
<div>= Building the Perfect Pitch =<br />
<br />
We need to be able to describe, in 75 persuasive words or less, to any possible listener, why Sugar matters. It's a tough job, but someone's got to do it. :)<br />
<br />
The goal of the elevator pitch is to elicit the magical words: '''tell me more'''.<br />
<br />
Here are the rules:<br />
<br />
* Got a pitch that's 75 words or less? Put it under "current elevator pitches", note the word count, and associate your wikiname with it.<br />
* Like a pitch? Put a +1 under it with your wikiname attached. For now, PICK ONLY ONE.<br />
* Want to reword a pitch? Great! Copy it and add your changes. DO NOT just change the pitch in place. Create a new one.<br />
* Don't +1 multiple pitches. That's cheating. If there are two you like, munge them into one. :)<br />
* The best pitches start with a hook aimed at some concern of the person listening. For children, just hold out a laptop. For parents, hold out a laptop to their children. For liberals, save the world. For hard-headed business types, talk about creating new markets. For social conservatives, talk about home schooling. Better still is a pitch that invites the hearer to express a concern that you can follow up on. We will need a whole [[Frequently Expressed Concerns]] list.<br />
<br />
== Current Elevator Pitches ==<br />
<br />
* Sugar is a computing environment for school kids. Kids learn by doing, and Sugar is designed for doing, together: chatting, sharing web pages, building stories, teaching one another. Sugar is built by a community of volunteers, which means that anyone who cares about education can help. 500,000 kids worldwide are already using Sugar on the OLPC. Sugar is unique and will change how kids learn. (65 words) [[User:Gdk]]<br />
<br />
* Investing locally in learning that works for every child (9 words) [[User:Walter]]<br />
<br />
* Investing locally in collaborative learning that works for every child (10 words) [[User:Walter]]<br />
<br />
* Investing locally in global learning that works for every child (10 words) [[User:Walter]]<br />
<br />
* How will it affect you when we can educate every child in the world? (14 words) [[User:Mokurai]]<br />
<br />
* How will it affect you when there is no more poverty? (11 words) [[User:Mokurai]]<br />
<br />
* Imagine a system designed for learning, exploring, creativity, and collaboration! Sugar doesn't leave you at the desktop, it opens a window to the world through interactive activities. Be part of it and invent the future of learning. (37 words) [[User:Ritafreudenberg]]<br />
<br />
== Brainstorm results ==<br />
<br />
At Sugar Camp, we went through a brainstorming exercise in which we wrote down a long list of traits that make Sugar unique. We then voted on the traits that resonated most strongly with all of us. The following list was the result. We can use this as a tool to help build the elevator pitch.<br />
<br />
* Collaboration (13)<br />
* Community (8)<br />
* Anyone can jump in (8)<br />
* The ''only'' OS designed for small children (5)<br />
* Children are not stupid (4)<br />
* Portfolios (4)<br />
* Allows engagement for all learning styles...(3)<br />
* Equal opportunity and stretches the student... (3)<br />
* Low floor, no ceiling (3)<br />
* Fulfillment of hope (2)<br />
* Learner & developer (2)<br />
* Momentum (2)<br />
* Journal (1)<br />
* Part of OLPC (big and well organized) (1)<br />
* MIT Media Lab... Papert, Kay, Dynabook... Engelbart (1)<br />
* Free as in beer (1)<br />
* Clay Christiansen (“disrupting class”) classic disruption tech. (1)<br />
* Helps kids in developing countries /participation gap (1)<br />
* Logo/Scratch/Squeak<br />
* Not real :(0)<br />
* XP on XO :(0)<br />
* “We are the change...” (0)<br />
* perception that it is only for developing world (0)<br />
* Sugar is complete (0)<br />
* Internet access/digital divide<br />
* Ending poverty<br />
<br />
==Wordsmithing==<br />
<br />
Some helpful snippets of wordsmithery.<br />
<br />
* solve more problems because more people will be freed from the chains of ignorance<br />
* think about computing, not operating systems<br />
* Sugar enables change<br />
* end ignorance through expression<br />
* cooperative discovery<br />
* cooperation is based on trust<br />
* more learning<br />
* learn to challenge the status<br />
* learn to question every... including Sugar<br />
* the path from helplessness to empowerment is one way<br />
* we learn by doing<br />
* Love is a better master than duty<br />
* You learn through doing, so if you want more learning, you want more doing<br />
* Knowledge is a noun, learning is a verb<br />
* "Technology is anything invented after you were born"<br />
* built by a global community of volunteers that anyone can join<br />
* Sugar was designed for children for learning, not office workers.<br />
* Sugar is owned by its users<br />
* Learning doesn't end at the door to the school<br />
* Sugar Labs provides the community of support for Sugar users<br />
* do, reflect, learn, share.</div>Ritafreudenberghttps://wiki.sugarlabs.org/index.php?title=Marketing_Team/Elevator_Pitch&diff=12372Marketing Team/Elevator Pitch2008-12-03T19:47:48Z<p>Ritafreudenberg: </p>

<div>= Building the Perfect Pitch =<br />
<br />
We need to be able to describe, in 75 persuasive words or less, to any possible listener, why Sugar matters. It's a tough job, but someone's got to do it. :)<br />
<br />
The goal of the elevator pitch is to elicit the magical words: '''tell me more'''.<br />
<br />
Here are the rules:<br />
<br />
* Got a pitch that's 75 words or less? Put it under "current elevator pitches", note the word count, and associate your wikiname with it.<br />
* Like a pitch? Put a +1 under it with your wikiname attached. For now, PICK ONLY ONE.<br />
* Want to reword a pitch? Great! Copy it and add your changes. DO NOT just change the pitch in place. Create a new one.<br />
* Don't +1 multiple pitches. That's cheating. If there are two you like, munge them into one. :)<br />
* The best pitches start with a hook aimed at some concern of the person listening. For children, just hold out a laptop. For parents, hold out a laptop to their children. For liberals, save the world. For hard-headed business types, talk about creating new markets. For social conservatives, talk about home schooling. Better still is a pitch that invites the hearer to express a concern that you can follow up on. We will need a whole [[Frequently Expressed Concerns]] list.<br />
<br />
== Current Elevator Pitches ==<br />
<br />
* Sugar is a computing environment for school kids. Kids learn by doing, and Sugar is designed for doing, together: chatting, sharing web pages, building stories, teaching one another. Sugar is built by a community of volunteers, which means that anyone who cares about education can help. 500,000 kids worldwide are already using Sugar on the OLPC. Sugar is unique and will change how kids learn. (65 words) [[User:Gdk]]<br />

<br />
* Imagine a system designed for learning, exploring, creativity, and collaboration! Sugar doesn't leave you at the desktop, it opens a window to the world through interactive activities. Be part of it and invent the future of leasrning. (37)[[User:Ritafreudenberg]]<br />

== Brainstorm results ==<br />
<br />
At Sugar Camp, we went through a brainstorming exercise in which we wrote down a long list of traits that make Sugar unique. We then voted on the traits that resonated most strongly with all of us. The following list was the result. We can use this as a tool to help build the elevator pitch.<br />
