Goals
- Encourage Fedora and Ubuntu communities to produce Sugar LiveCD. Advertise them, get schools to use them and to provide feedback.
- LiveUSB is also important, as it means someone can make changes;
- making sure that multiple Live media Sugars can talk to each other so that people can experience the collaboration features is very important.
- Sugar chooses a font based on the screen size and dpi (graphics/style.py); we need to make this work better for non-xo devices.
- For Sugar to be useful to the elderly (and to help with accessibility) we need to make sure we can do some scaling of fonts and other interface components
- Sugar should adapt itself to the screen resolutions of other non-xo laptops, such as Classmate 2's 1024x600 resolution.
- bundlebuilder should be improved to use the correct system paths when doing a system installation, so that activities can be more easily packaged into rpm or deb. For example, translations should go in /usr/share/locale.
- Establish a testing/feedback regime to make sure that these tools really work in the field.
Status
- Some work on bundlebuilder has been done. Fedora packages for activities are really trivial now.
