* My answer:
I think Sugar OS will be a great move to give sugar experience to users on non-Sugar devices. Since the users of the sugar platform are children, to give sugar experience through mobile devices would be much effective. Nowadays smart mobile devices are common among people and kids are also tempted to play with them. Therefore if we take that advantage into account and provide an OS with full sugar experience kids will love it and it would give more effective learning experience too. In the technical point of view the current converted apk of the sugarizer platform takes about 240 MB memory which is relatively large amount considered with apks installed. Therefore if we introduce a launcher and separate apps for each sugarizer activities this effect can be resolved.
* Walter Bender:
Sugarizer OS is an attempt to spread the core ideas of Sugar to learners who do not have access to the Sugar Desktop. While we have made a lt of progress on the basic functionality, we still have just begun to scratch the surface regarding offering a rich collection of Apps. This project should go a long ways towards realizing a more complete offering.

** I can get help from the sugar community and from my friends and lecturers from the university. I can use help of communities such as stack overflow for non-domain specific help (i.e android issues).
