Localizers working on a new language project often want to know which project(s) they need to complete to make Sugar user interface (UI) usable in their own language.  This page attempts to give a little background on the projects as they are organized on the Pootle server.  For a more authoritative description of how Sugar is structured, you should also read other pages on this wiki, including [[Taxonomy]] and others.

Since the questions of "What are the most important PO files?" or "In what order should we complete the translation work?" are closely related, this page will list the projects on the Pootle serv er in a recommended order of completion along with some of the reasoning behind those recommendations.  They are just guidance and any localizer can decide for themselves which proejcts they think are most important.  For instance, the e-toys project localization is hosted on the Sugar Labs / OLPC Pootle server and someone interested only in etoys (but not necessarily on a Sugar-based system might want to work on that project first, but it is to be hoped that they would also consider contributing some of their skills to other projects hosted here as well.

This is the most current version of Fructose (0.87 until Spring 2010 release cycle, at which point it will be renumbered 0.88 according to the [[0.88/Roadmap]]).  Fructose contains a number of activities that are considered core to the use of the Sugar UI as a learning tool.
