I am new to Open Source. However i have earned a little contribution to an open source organisation, '''[http://codeforindia.org/ Code for India]'''.

Education is something which is very close to my heart. Sugar labs is an outstanding organisation. I am excited by each effort this organisation takes for child education. I came to know about sugar labs through OLPC laptops which i want in Govt. schools of New Delhi for kids. Gsoc 15 was few months ahead, so realized to finish something cool for kids in summer & contribute to Sugar labs as well.

'''If your project is successfully completed, what will its impact be on the Sugar Labs community? Give 3 answers, each 1-3 paragraphs in length. The first one should be yours. The other two should be answers from members of the Sugar Labs community, at least one of whom should be a Sugar Labs GSoC mentor. Provide email contact information for non-GSoC mentors'''.'''<br>'''

'''''My ~~Opionion~~''''': Sugar believes that "Everyone is a teacher and a learner". My projects Physics & Dimensions would be one of the best available tools for learners and teachers. Around 3 Million Children are sugar users. We want Sugar and Sugar activities freely and readily available to learners everywhere, hence web ports are a dire need saying web platform are a faster & cheapest. Kids at any corner of world would be able to learn Physics practically and Dimensions to increase their observational skills that helps them think quickly & enrich their mental skills.

'''''Walter:'' ''' The Physics activity is one of the more popular Sugar activities. However, it is getting harder to maintain since the core libraries it is based on are deprecated. A fresh start is warranted. Migrating to JS makes sense because (1) there are some well supported libraries and (2) there is the opportunity to import data from real-world sources in a web-based approach. Looking forward to seeing what you come up with.

'''<br>''''''What will you do if you get stuck on your project and your mentor isn't around?'''

If i am stuck i always like to move on and keep the doubt in my stack. Will produce it once my mentor is back. Depending on the issue i get i will try first finding solution on my own via relevant sources say Google,StackOverflow,Sugar IRC etc. I feel there are lot of ways i can ~~tackel~~ this situation. Hence i will try to look upon myself for the solution in case my mentor is not around.

'''How do you propose you will be keeping the community informed of your progress and any problems or questions you might have over the course of the project?'''

I am planning to update my progress every Sunday on my sugar '''[http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/User:Kabhi2104 wiki]'''. I am quite active on IRC as well and i believe is the fastest medium for me. Once my mentor appears i will pass links to my code,wiki~~,blogs~~ to him to have a quick check up. I will create a thread on '''[http://sugar-devel.sugarlabs.narkive.com/ Mailing List]''' as well that would help other developers for regular updates on PhyscisJS and DimensionsJS Development.
