I am the co-founder and co-leader of Red Hat's community architecture team. As such, I am responsible for driving Red Hat's strategic investments in open source community development. I was the founding chairman of the Fedora Project board, and was primarily responsible for building Fedora's governance model. Currently, I serve as full-time primary liaison between Red Hat, the Fedora community, and the OLPC project, and is working actively to increase visible community participation within the OLPC project.
My priority for Sugar is to make it the desktop of choice for the "altruistic developer" -- the savvy tech geek who is willing to live the Sugar experience. Sugar will improve rapidly when great free software developers are using it every day and feeling its growing pains directly. To that end, Jeremy Katz, Robin Norwood and I (all of Red Hat) have already proposed a feature in Fedora 10 to <a href="http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/Sugar">make Sugar one of the login options in gdm.</a>
The absolute critical path for Sugar's success is to bring developers to the table. In Fedora, this is where I excelled, and I believe I can create the same results for Sugar.
