→GTK wrapper library for Android
=== GTK wrapper library for Android ===
=== GTK wrapper library for Android ===
Sugar Activities uses the PyGTK library wich is a binding for GTK. Android doesn't have GTK and porting GTK to Android is very complicated due to the difference in the user space of GNU/Linux and Android.

The objetive of this task is to develop a wrapper library of [http://www.pygtk.org/ PyGTK] that expose the same API but invoque equivalent methods in a Android graphic library like [http://kivy.org/#home Kivy]. The student only have to implement the minimal set of methods that allows to run the [http://activities.sugarlabs.org/en-US/sugar/addon/4418 hello world activity] wich is the more basic sugar activty.

Benefits to the Community: This will be the first step to have a framework for porting Sugar Activities to Android with a minimal impact in the actual code of the activity. Also will help outside the Sugar community being a quick method for porting GTK aplications to Android
