::The convenience of using one-click deployment scripts can be instrumental in getting non-developers to using a project and using a Heroku Button is even better when you don’t have to use to a terminal to have your own instance of Sugarizer.

:: 1) I think that the Pi will be able to handle the load, we won’t have that much kids connected to the same Pi and the networking process is not that heavy.

:: This is exactly how the xsce server works so you may get valuable help from that community (xsce or iiab).

::A continuing issue is performance of the server in a classroom or school. One metric is the number of simultaneous connections the device can support (a classroom of 40-60 is not uncommon). Response time to requests to the server can be limited by the size of memory, the speed of access to the sd card, or the processor speed. I would be very interested in the methodology you propose since that process would apply equally to the schoolserver.

::One issue is to characterize the workload - how often does a user request a transaction from the server, what is the time between requests (when the user is reading the response to the previous request), how much processing is required for a request (e.g. a text search), how much information is required to satisfy a request (e.g. size of file download). So far as I know no one has attempted this characterization for a classroom. This load could be different for Sugarizer than for Sugar, but the effort would be valuable in any case)

::Speaking of reliability, we have experienced a number of occasions when mongodb was corrupt on the rpi, perhaps through disorderly shutdown. Perhaps you can sort that out.

::I would also recommend focusing on the rpi install before turning to Heroku or AWS as most users are without an internet connection. All I'm suggesting is that you start with Sugarizer School Box item 1 and then proceed to item 2 when it is complete.

'''What will you do if you get stuck on your project and your mentor isn't around?'''

'''How do you propose you will be keeping the community informed of your progress and any problems or questions you might have over the course of the project?'''

:In the Community Bonding period, I will create a blog for myself and I will share my weekly experiences and progress through it.

:I wanted to know if I should add more details about the implementation of the tasks in the proposal and I would also love to recieve any kind of feedback from the community.
