suggestion from djhbrown: i'm not sure how to add a suggestion to the wiki so am doing it here - i'm a total newbie to xo/sugar and sorry to say i dont like many things about it. first off, i hoped it would be an obvious interface, which it isn't. it's not obvious to a 5yo or a 63yo like me, that is. i get the feeling that what you have is entrenched in developers' minds and maybe even some see it as a branded style which they wont want to be totally changed.

−

~~here are some of the issues i feel non-geek users are presented with:~~

−

1. the interface is not intuitive. the icons are non-obvious, the list view is unnecessarily stretched out, the circle view is going to get worse as more apps are added to it, the huge cursor just gets in the way, + 100 other things

−

~~2. of all the interfaces in the world, xo sugar for kids is the one that most needs to require no tuition to use. but it's anything but that.~~

−

where is the discussion forum for design principles? where is the forum for user (ie kids and their teachers) feedback? why doesnt sugar have 2 separate environments; one for kids and one for teachers - they have different needs. teachers need guidelines, kids need suggestions on what they can do.

−

~~is sugar unable to run any of the other wonderful K12 stuff produced outside oplc? why isnt that included?~~
