Hi
My name is Aleksey Lim, I am a volunteer for SugarLabs.
Short time tasks queue
- Build 0sugar packages on OBS
- build GC in major distros on OBS
- ASLO redesign
- per arch/locale uploads
- no experimental activities by default
- microformat support
- Sugarize OOo4Kids
- journal integration
- OOo4Kids builds
- libjounral/Library-2 entirely based on Polyol
- First Polyol public release
Long time tasks queue
- Improve Polyol libraries.
- Encircle all packaging related stuff around sugar in one well designed packaging system - 0sugar:
- move packaging related code from glucose to 0sugar e.g. if there are two activity installations, one to /usr and one to ~/Activities, sugar decides what version is preferable, or what should happen if user removes activity. This is regular packaging work which should be moved to packaging system.
- extensive usage of centralized (native packaging systems like rpm or deb) and decentralized (0install) models
- patch 0install to support not read only usage of installed packages (some activities could be under development)
- ActivityLibrary activity to replace existed shell (in case of managing activities) to support 0sugar
Every day background tasks
- Maintain ASLO code base
- Sucrose packaging for:
- Gentoo overlay
- ALT Linux
- Mandriva
- openSUSE
- Maintain code for:
- tuxpaint
- speak
- flipsticks
- cartoon-builder
- gst-plugins-espeak
- gcompris
- Maintain orphaned activities:
- tamtam
- joke-machine
- jigsaw-puzzle
- slider-puzzle
- story-builder
In perspective
- Life in sugar! - support full time being online in sugar
- Sugar Daemons, all time beeing online servers that provide useful shared instances for broad collaboration e.g. Chat instances per purposes ("Ask your nub question", "How to hack sugar" etc.)
- Library instance via Sugar Daemon to provide server sharing model
- Сheck notification system in shell if it works well in "all time being in sugar" workflow
- Сreate Collab activity
- Collab instance via Sugar Daemon to have global collaboration portal for all sugar contributors/requesters.
- standalone mode for activities thus more close merge sugar with other education software e.g. ASLO could be not just portal of sugar activities but portal of education software(non-sugar users could run particular activity w/o need to install sugar)
