* In comparing with the [[Development Team]], the Platform Team does not care about developing Sugar Desktop Environment (Sucrose) but rather provides useful infrastructure to help, as many as possible, people to take part in Sucrose development process.

* Support doing behavior by providing useful [[Platform_Team/Sweets|distribution method]] and various Sugar Doers Kits (that really sounds better than another SDK transcription, Software Developers Kit).

* Support ''doing'' behaviors by providing useful [[Platform_Team/Sweets|distribution method]]s and various Sugar Doers' Kits (that really sounds better than the traditional SDK transcription, Software Developers Kit).
* Connect doers and users by developing services for seamless infrastructure, e.g., [[Activity Library]].
+
* Connect doers and other learners (users) by developing services for a seamless infrastructure for sharing software, e.g., [[Activity Library]].
* Prolong the previous two goals to the non-Sugar environments, not to ''sugarize'' them all but rather to emerge Sugar software to the common [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free_software Free Software] and educational ecosystem.

* Extend the previous two goals to non-Sugar environments, not to ''sugarize'' them all, but rather to merge and promote Sugar software with and within the common [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free_software Free Software] and education ecosystems.
