What sort of presentation to use?

−

~~:Not yet ... (Tom might be a GCompris user / learner-contributor?)~~

−

~~: Shall we expect visitors from this community? http://www.raspberrypi.org/. They will be interested to see if Sugar will cross-compile to ARM. (I think)~~

−

'''Features''' will be the same for all three audience members. Just to record my first impressions, these three links got me up to speed....http://0install.net/why.html ... http://packages.debian.org/wheezy/gnome-packagekit ... [[Platform_Team/Guide]].

'''~~Advantages~~''' - ~~What are the advantages for Tom Dick~~ and ~~Harry? Are we talking educational or productive?~~

'''Benefits''' - What are the benefits?

:I find [[Community/Distributions/Sweets_Distribution |Sweets Distribution]] easier to use for Ubuntu' and its Derivatives (Adding an additional Repository to synaptic) as the packages are pre-configured, ready to use.

::[[Platform_Team/Guide/Sugar_via_Sweets|Sugar via Sweets]] has a wider applicability to linux OS's but requires a more experienced user. [[User:Satellit|satellit_]] 7:17 4 December 2011 (PST)

::: " For now, sweets knows only enough about the glucose dependencies to install them from native packages in Debian, Ubuntu, Fedora, Mandriva, openSUSE, and Gentoo."

Line 46: Line 44:

* make Sugar Shell launch as simply and obviously as possible for early adopters,

* add new entrance for non-doers, the way to run activities via Sweets (big task that requires special treatment).

Based on my limited experience of installing sweets on only two distros, Mint-12 and Debian, testing, Wheezy I have two possible suggestions for improved documentation.
