====Update/remove old content on wiki.laptop.org====
[http://wiki.laptop.org/ wiki.laptop.org] contains a lot of information about Sugar that is outdated, while more up-to-date and more complete pages on the same topic can often be found on this wiki (the Sugarlabs one). Please consider reviewing those old pages and either replacing them by links to the appropriate Sugarlabs wiki pages (preferred) or updating them (with the risk of them getting out of sync again). A good starting point are the [http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Category:Installing_Sugar "Installing Sugar" pages]. Those often recommend using an "emulated XO" or running sugar-jhbuild. But as [[Downloads]] shows, the recommended ways to get Sugar (for non-developers) is to either burn [[Sugar on a Stick]] or install distribution packages.
