AWS Update

  • Qixiang started working on FastAPI sometime this week.
  • There's nothing to test at the moment.
  • We're currently improving what's been added to the sugar-ai repo.
  • Once Qixiang has something basic, we can test.

HacktoberFest

[How to Participate](https://hacktoberfest.com/participation/#maintainers)

Cloudflare

We now have Google Workspace for Sugar Labs. Bernie, Matt Lee (who is advising us re: funding, as well as tech -- former employee at FSF and creator of GNU social), and Devin have access. Devin set up Cloudflare in the hope that we can implement a collaborative approach to DNS updates. I hope it will also avoid single-point-of-failure.

Website improvements

OLPC in Panama

The World Bank says Panama is not doing great with their costs/benefits; they spent the largest amounts per student in the region and their education is not doing great. Maybe we can help? Claudia and Devin will speak with Lylian.

GSoC Mentor Summit

Devin made a lot of connections, which he will continue to follow up on; he presented our work doing video events as part of GSoC; heI participated in as many discussions as possible; shared Music Blocks with another coder doing a music learning tool; he saw Sameer; and it was a relatively inexpensive trip (which is very good). Devin also met a lot of folks at GSoC summit who were like, "I recommend students etc. to Sugar Labs, and I'm so thankful to have a face to the org." Or "oh, that's still going? Great!" and they would ask follow up questions, etc.
