Platform Team/Mission

The mission of the Platform Team is providing as-unified-as-possible runtime and development time environments for all Sugar doers, regardless of what platform they are using (it is all about when Sugar can be used natively or otherwise run a native Sugar platform in virtual environments).

In contrast with Development and Activity Teams, the Platform Team's mission is not about the development process itself, but about supporting doers by providing

• the same set of required dependencies, and
• a common distribution method.

The Platform Team will work closely with GNU/Linux distributions that provide Sugar, and will try to round all differences between them to make Sugar doers' lives easier.
