Below is the rough draft, it talks about the implementation in abstract way just to share the idea of implementation.
Below is the technical abstract for Marbles:

''' My "Open Source" activites '''
* Check out the source code of shallow file browser at http://code.google.com/p/shallow-file-browser. Do check the snapshot of browser in action.
* Minute-Shell: Well, it's a part of my course project. I created a small program to emulate linux shell. This code is hosted at http://code.google.com/p/minute-shell/ .
Ans. This project support children creativity and imagination. These small games, development activity will surely help them to become problem solvers, innovators, and creative thinkers. These activities will also help the children to develop many important skills that boost a child's learning and success.

Q12. ''' Sugar Labs will be working to set up a small (5-30 unit) Sugar pilot near each student project that is accepted to GSoC so that you can immediately see how your work affects children in a deployment. We will make arrangements to either supply or find all the equipment needed. Do you have any ideas on where you would like your deployment to be, who you would like to be involved, and how we can help you and the community in your area begin it?'''

I used jhbuild to install and update the source code needed for the sugar development. I tested it by creating some activities given on wiki<br> page of sugar lab and it was working fine.<br>

Q16. ''' What is your t-shirt size? (Yes, we know Google asks for this already; humor us.)'''
Q16. ''' Describe a great learning experience you had as a child.'''
Ans. As a child, I had a great interest in science and was more curious to know everything. One thing I would like to share is, When I was in 8th standard, I was more impressed by Einsten-theory "One theory for every theories" and still I am. I remember discussing my new science theories on unification of world and discoveries with my science teacher and which ofcourse he won't like and always got irritated, but what he always suggested me, is to read & analyze before coming to conclusions. This habit of me is still continuing. Now the views have changed, questions are different but thirst for knowing things is still the same. My teacher not only answers my query but it gives me a life time dose to approach for my problems.
Q17. ''' What is your t-shirt size? (Yes, we know Google asks for this already; humor us.)'''
Ans. medium.
Ans. medium
Q18.''' Is there anything else we should have asked you or anything else that we should know that might make us like you or your project more?'''
