| − | 1. I promised to share the occasional Marvin Minsky story. I heard many that were new to me at his memorial service at MIT last week, one of which I'd like to share here. Cynthia Solomon, one of the co-inventors of Logo and co-author of the classic paper from 1971, [https://dspace.mit.edu/bitstream/handle/1721.1/5836/AIM-248.pdf "Twenty Things to Do with a Computer"], was one of the speakers at the service. She recalled the many contributions Marvin made to Logo, the language, and to the pedagogy we associate with Seymour. What I didn't realize was the extent to which Marvin (and his students) were responsible for broadening the scope of computational thinking beyond the desktop. Cynthia shared some before and after slides of children using Logo in the late 1960s and early 1970s, after Marvin's influence had manifest itself. The excitement of using programming in the context of graphics, robotics, and music was palpable. We at Sugar Labs are very much standing on Minsky's shoulders. | + | 1. One of my favorite Marvin Minsky stories took place in the mid 1990s. Marvin and I had to meet someone at the bar at the Ritz Carlton Hotel in downtown Boston. Marvin, as was his habit, was wearing a vest—one with large, useful pockets. As we started to walk into the bar, we were stopped and told that we needed neckties in order to enter. Marvin told the doorman that we had to go in for a meeting, but that we did not have neckties. The doorman very graciously offered to lend us neckties. He momentarily stepped into the cloakroom and returned with two ties; he offered one to each of us. Marvin took a tie, said "thank you", wrapped it around his waist, and walked into the bar. |

| − | 2. The application period for Google Summer of Code (GSoC) has ended. We have 62 applications this year, exceeding our total from last year. Over the next week, community mentors will vet the applications and we will apply for slots from Google based on both the quality of the applications (quite high from my sampling) and the ability of the community to support the summer interns. If you are interested in being a mentor, it is not too late. Please contact me. | + | 2. Help me in welcoming our six summer interns from the Google Summer of Code program: Yash Agarwal, Vikram Ahuja, Abhijit Patel, Hemant Kasat, Jeremie Amsellem, and Utkarsh Tiwari. Yash will be working on a Font Editor Activity under the mentorship of Dave Crossland and Eli Heuer. Vikram is working with Tymon Radzik and me on a GIT Backend for activities. Abhijit is working with Sam Parkinson on a "Journal Rethink". Hemant is working with Devin Ulibarri on adding some new widgets to Music Blocks. Jeremie is working with Lionel Laské and Michaël Ohayon on Sugarizer. Utkarsh is working with Tony Anderson and Sebastian Silva on "Sugar on the Ground", a series of enhancements to Sugar in support of small and off-line deployments. |

| + | We'll be meeting as a group on Fridays at 12:00 UTC beginning in late May on irc.freenode.net, #sugar-meeting. Feel free to join us. |
| | | | |
| − | 3. Devin Ulibarri and I had the opportunity to speak at [https://libreplanet.org/2016/ LibrePlanet]. Our topic was [https://wiki.sugarlabs.org/images/c/c7/Education-needs-free-software.pdf "Education needs Free/Libre Software needs education."]
| + | We had many more quality proposals than slots. I'd like thank everyone who applied this year and hope that even if you were not among the selected projects, you will continue to contribute to the Sugar Labs community. |
| | | | |
| − | <blockquote>ABSTRACT: The bad news is that educational technology has largely failed to deliver on its promise. Its focus on efficiency rather than on learning has resulted in a further reinforcement of education as a system of instruction to curricula rather than one of student-driven construction of knowledge.
| + | === In the Community === |
| | | | |
| − | The good news is that Free/Libre Software is the starting point towards a solution—not just because it tends to focus on putting powerful tools into the hands of its end-users, but also because Free/Libre Software espouses a culture of doing and sharing in a context of critique, reflection, and personal responsibility.
| + | 3. We have a Sugar Labs oversight board meeting on Friday, 6 May, at 16:00 UTC. |
| | | | |
| − | In this session, we will review some tangible ways in which Free/Libre Software is having and can have a positive impact on education and some things we can and should be doing better. We will then discuss strategies for advocating for Free/Libre Software in education systems both in the US and globally. The next generation of computer users are in school today. We need to ensure that the next generation is empowered to take advantage of the opportunities afforded by Free/Libre Software.</blockquote>
| + | The [[Oversight_Board/Minutes#Agenda_items|agenda]] includes: |
| | + | * Motion to pay for laboratoriosazucar.org domain (See [http://lists.sugarlabs.org/archive/iaep/2016-May/018096.html]); |

| | | | |
| − | Unlike the session on Free/Libre Software at EdFoo, which was sparsely attended, there was standing-room only for our session. The recording should be on line within a few weeks.
| + | Please join us on irc.freenode.net #sugar-meeting. |
| | | | |
| − | It occured to me afterwards that one simple call to action would be for every member of the Free/Libre Software community to adopt a teacher (or be open to being adopted, e.g., Devin, a music teacher, has adopted me). We need to make our voices heard.
| + | 4. I was busy with Music Blocks workshops in April: at the Boston Coding Camp; the Boys and Girls Club of Dorchester (with Mariah Noelle Villarreal) and the Walsh Middle School in Framingham, MA (with Pascal Chesnais). |
| | | | |
| − | 4. David Crossland, whom I had the pleasure of meeting at LibrePlanet, has been busy recruiting GSoC students to write a Sugar [[Font Editor]] activity (a project that has long been on both my and Gonzalo Odiard's wish list).
| + | 5. Dave Crossland has organized a WIKI gardening party for the weekend of May 14-15. Those who are in the Boston area will meet together at my office at MIT, W31-302. We'll see more of you on line as well as we attempt to prune deprecated pages and ensure the content is up to date. We'll also be migrating some content to www.sugarlabs.org. |
| | | | |
| − | David said out loud what many of us have been thinking: our wiki is a mess. He has issued a call to action to do some gardening. Specifically, he and I will be leading a two-day sprint on the weekend of May 14/15 in the Boston area (USA). The goal is to begin cleaning up the wiki content and other parts of Sugar Labs web properties, making them ready for the GSoC project to start.
| + | === Tech Talk === |
| | | | |
| − | If you'd like to participate, in person or remotely, please let Walter know. The final time and location details (most likely somewhere on the MIT campus) will be shared on the IAEP list nearer the time.
| + | 6. Sebastian Silva announced last week some progress on running Sugar Activities from the GNU/Linux desktop. He [https://github.com/sugarlabs/sugar-toolkit-gtk3/pull/315 patched sugar-toolkit-gtk3] to enable activities to run using sugar-activity script (tested in Gnome, XFCE and Sugar itself). |
| − | | |
| − | === Tech Talk ===
| |
| | | | |
| − | 5. Many thanks to Samuel Cantero, a member of the Sugar Labs systems team, who has been quietly maintaining and upgrading our servers behind the scenes. He recently fixed the breakage with our Trac system; our Wordpress instance; and some problems with the Sugar Activity portal. (Tip of the hat to alsroot for his help regarding ASLO as well).
| + | Sebastian also created a notification-tray applet that allows one to start activities and even invoke journal items (See [https://github.com/icarito/sugar-launcher-applet]). More details are available at [[Features/FreeDesktop integration]]. |
