In other words, process of developping Sugar should not look like creating a product (by developpers) to let other people (users) use it. Instead, Sugar consists of ''doers'', all doers teach each over (and themselves) all time while creating something sustainable, starting from a hacker who codes sugar core and ending by a kid who creates his first Turtle Art project. | | # '''Process does matter'''<br>Once [http://translate.google.ru/translate?js=n&prev=_t&hl=en&ie=UTF-8&layout=2&eotf=1&sl=ru&tl=en&u=http%3A%2F%2Fru.wikipedia.org%2Fwiki%2F%25D0%2592%25D0%25BE%25D1%2581%25D0%25BF%25D0%25B8%25D1%2582%25D0%25B0%25D0%25BD%25D0%25B8%25D0%25B5 Воспитание] is a primal target, process[of doing something] is a major instrument to achieve this target.

As education can't happen using only one particular instrument, such, Sugar should not impose using particular vertical structures (i.e., software applications). Instead, Sugar should provide a set of basic, low-level and horizontal instruments. As addition, Sugar provides a set of ready-to-use, vertical structures but with detailed instruction how to disassemble them and how to create new creatures using the same components. | + | # '''Cement the floor, remove the ceiling'''<br>Once [http://translate.google.ru/translate?js=n&prev=_t&hl=en&ie=UTF-8&layout=2&eotf=1&sl=ru&tl=en&u=http%3A%2F%2Fru.wikipedia.org%2Fwiki%2F%25D0%2592%25D0%25BE%25D1%2581%25D0%25BF%25D0%25B8%25D1%2582%25D0%25B0%25D0%25BD%25D0%25B8%25D0%25B5 Воспитание] is a primal target and the process is a major instrument within great variety of doers, organisation is critically important.
