=== Groupthink ===
The [[Summer_of_Code/2009/Groupthink Groupthink GSoC Project]] successfully achieved its specified goals. The student, Benjamin Schwartz, wrote
# a [http://bemasc.net/~bens/groupthink/groupthink.gtk_tools.SharedTextView-class.html gtk SharedTextView widget] that provides live shared editing in a self-contained object
# a [http://bemasc.net/~bens/groupthink/groupthink.groupthink_base.UnorderedString-class.html network interface] to allow sharing this widget over the network
# a SharedTextDemo activity (versions [http://lists.sugarlabs.org/archive/sugar-devel/2009-June/014795.html 1], [http://lists.sugarlabs.org/archive/sugar-devel/2009-June/015346.html 2], [http://lists.sugarlabs.org/archive/sugar-devel/2009-June/015713.html 3], [http://lists.sugarlabs.org/archive/sugar-devel/2009-July/016739.html 4], and [http://lists.sugarlabs.org/archive/sugar-devel/2009-July/017004.html 5]) to demonstrate the use of this widget
# an automated [http://bemasc.net/~bens/groupthink/groupthink.groupthink_base.Group-class.html#dumps serialization system] for saving and loading state [http://bemasc.net/~bens/groupthink/groupthink.sugar_tools.GroupActivity-class.html#read_file with the Journal]
# [http://bemasc.net/~bens/groupthink/groupthink.sugar_tools.GroupActivity-class.html other] code necessary so that Sugar activities could seamlessly rejoin a shared instance and merge in changes made offline
# [http://git.sugarlabs.org/projects/pippy/repos/pippy-groupthink/commits/0f30ab2a17670d3f7e7723fe4f4756333030c3e0 patches] to enable live shared editing of Python code, with syntax highlighting and Undo/Redo, in [http://activities.sugarlabs.org/en-US/sugar/addons/versions/4041#version-35 Pippy-35]
# extensive [http://bemasc.net/~bens/groupthink/ API documentation] for Groupthink.
Thanks to the support from Sugar Labs and Google, Groupthink has grown from a toy project into a library that developers can really use.
