I have been a part of sugar since January this year. This is my first time contributing to an open source organization, but so far I am really enjoying the experience. Ever since I started exploring the world of open source, I have been mesmerised by the simplicity and the noble intentions behind the work that is being done. Sugar labs in particular has grabbed my attention so far because of OLPC program. It is a great initiative, and I want to contribute in whatever way I can to it.
