Create page

=Activities.sugarlabs.org=
Over the last several months, there have been on and off discussions about how to adapt the addons.mozilla.org server to manage Sugar activities.

==Background==
Information about Remora, the codename for a.m.o version 3, is at https://wiki.mozilla.org/Update:Remora.

== Why base a.s.o on a.m.o ==
=== Pros ===
* The function of a.s.o is exactly the same as the desired functionality of a.m.o.

=== Cons ===
* A.m.o is currently only used my mozilla.
* A.m.o is written in cake-php (yet another web framework)

== Installing activities.sugarlabs.org ==

Mozilla.org runs a.m.o on CentOS5.0. For capability reasons these instructions will also use CentOS5.2.
