Devin has been running the weekly seminar. It has been really interesting. FWIW, we did get 20 more YT subscribers (from 100) in the past 30 days That's a 20% increase within a month

GSoC/DMP

Look for blog posts [here](https://medium.com/@sugarlabs/list/google-summer-of-code-d90eae4b54fb).

In brief:

  • The Pippy "co-pilot" project is looking at how to include pygame and GTK toolkits in a Sugar-like way
  • The Maths Games projects are sorting out some issues like screen-size changes as they progress on individual games... there are 3-4 already coded but needing some additional TLC
  • The sing to MB project has settled in on an initial approach to pitch and rhythm tracking.
  • The RPi projects are focusing on Pippy, Turtle, and Measure extensions
  • MB4 -- working on defining the block UX
  • The Make-Your-Own Lesson Plan project is working with RAG on the guide data so far... lesson plan data up next.
