Sugar wish list
Use this page to request new features or enhancements to Sugar.
See also Request New Features.
Sugar Platform
- satellit 02/18/2011
- always start sugar at Name_____ screen (not as many distros that start at Color____(for avitar).
- change avitar (CP/about me) name to match that logged in by user when first setting up sugar.
- Change IRC Name to match above and select the appropriate #channel for the distribution. This should be stored permanently until (CP/about me) is changed.
sugar-emulator
- satellit 03/15/2011
- install sugar-emulator with command "sugar-emulator -f" as default
- This would allow sugar emulator to match screen size of hardware it is running on and always be full screen
- alternately provide a modal button on top frame of emulator window to switch to full screen and back at will.
- until then we keep mentioning it, e.g. how to configure full screen.
Activity Library wish list
Enter here features or enhancements you would like in the Sugar Activity Library.
To track implementation progress, go to developers' corner.
Activity Collection comments
- Just like Activity comments
Nicknaming it SAL instead of ASLO
- And personify SAL, the librarian, as a new century librarian of Sugar Activities.
- This would be friendlier to children and teachers, and further distinguish our library from the Mozilla origins.
- What about naming it simply: Library, Sugar Library, i.e., without any acronyms at all. alsroot 21:55, 18 February 2011 (EST)
- There are befriending and marketing advantages to a nice nickname. Developers will use shorthand regardless, and sal is shorter and easier to pronounce than aslo. As children advance to developers, they will recognize their friend's name in use by the adults and maybe feel like, wow!, I would like to do that too. There are lots of Salvadors, Sallys, Salvatores, Saleems, etc. who would take note. And we could even spins some legends about the serious activity leader who appropriated the software to build our library, and the Siberian A L who is keeping it working, and the South American and Aotearoan librarians who are working on curation. --FGrose 21:01, 20 February 2011 (EST)

Improvements in L10n annotation
It would be good to know if an activity has been internationalized and set up for localization, whether is is hosted in the Sugar Labs Pootle instance or elsewhere. Cjl 17:22, 21 February 2011 (EST)
