In many ways this aims '''beyond Sugar as a purpose in itself''', to something like '''seeing Sugar as a tool for a purpose'''.

I am not much of a programmer, I sincerely am in awe at those who can manage the nitty gritty of coding and putting things together. I barely have found some success in working communication with the Sur list, OLPC News, and such fori. I've been a classroom teacher over 15 years, in Uruguay, the US. This to say that I just want to help things along, with feet on the ground - I do not have all the solutions, alas. This is a team effort thing, and the team needs to be wider.

'''My proposal''' is that we will listen to the needs of the teachers, of kids and families, and focus our assembled geek abilities to help them achieve quality education, definitely not just what we think this means, but rather what they actually face as real priorities and needs that we can help with, with Sugar
