** sugar still has lack of critical mass of participants who contribute on regular bases thus coordination of development efforts is a critical point and we need to track and schedule such efforts in more formal(then posting emails to sugar-devel@ for example) manner<br>e.g. every core team member will all time know what other members are working on and what the progress of current tasks
