The Platform Team has been working on a reference Sugar + GNU/Linux distribution for XO laptops. The Sweets project has infrastructure and packages for Ubuntu, Debian and Fedora. It would be a great contribution if these could be integrated into a reference distribution for regular computers. It could be based on TOAST, SOAS, or build from a new base.

This project would be deployed by the volunteer team in Peru.
