After getting feedback, sweets-distribution.sh was simplified to make it simple installer. So, the command:
wget ftp://download.sugarlabs.org/packages/sweets-distribution.sh sudo sh sweets-distribution.sh
will just install "sweets" package to have "sweets-distribution" command in the system. Sets up gpg key

* the number of buddies should be increased from ~20 to 70-90 some Sugar versions (maybe 0.90-0.92) don't publish information about nickname/colors on regular basis; this information are being stored on disk for now * for some buddies, server still don't have information about colors (replaced by gray) and nick names (jabber ids) * Neighbourhood view will show non-Sugar contacts (balck&white colors) that might be useful, e.g., to start chating with them using Chat activity
