Near-term goals
(3-6 months)
Medium-term goals
(6-12 months)
- Investigate inter-wiki searching options that would allow for joint searching of Sugar Labs and collaborator wikis.
- Seek collaboration on better separation and joining of information between collaborator wikis, i.e.,
Long-term goals
(1-3+ years)
- Seek more ways to automatically embed integrative links on mailing list posts, patchwork, gitorious, bugs, doc, translate, etc. products so Learners can easily navigate to the source.
Constraints
- What does the team see as its constraints from being more successful in its Mission?
- Participation
- Technological complexity
- Complexity of organizing information

- Promote greater documentation and interlinking of information.
- Attract more participants by public discussion.

Highlights
Test wikis
- Note: The following two wikis share the same page database, but have separate server configurations.
wiki.laptop.org
- Follow up on marking pages on w.lt.o as migrated.
- See open bugs for the remaining open bugs.
Usability
- Install mediawikiwiki:Extension:NewArticleTemplates for easier new page editing support for new and experienced users. (Lower floor and raise ceiling.)
- include separate subpage template
- investigate to determine if the Mediawiki:NewArticleTemplate could include a template parameter that would default to Mediawiki:NewArticleTemplateDefault, but allow an arbitrary NS_MAIN page to be called for customization.
- If you want a button to "create a new page", you can use Extension:Inputbox See example at olpc::Testing_meetings. -- Skierpage 17:16, 30 March 2009 (UTC)
- Consider embedding Nabble's Sugar Forum to provide a mailing list forum environment on the wiki.
Potential
If and when wiki.sugarlabs.org has a lot of information that can be displayed, queried, and summarized in multiple places, the olpc:Semantic MediaWiki extension is the way to represent it. As of March 2009 it's unclear if there is a compelling use case for it.
