This is Release Candidate 1. Now we have one more release to go before code freeze ( see the schedule). Many fixes have been going into this development release and we hope that they help to stabilize a lot. Please test and give feedback and file bugs you find.

-== Instructions to test in olpc joyride ==
-The sugar packages from Sucrose 0.81.4 went into the olpc image [http://xs-dev.laptop.org/~cscott/olpc/streams/joyride/build2129/ joyride-2129]. You can update to joyride using [http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Olpc-update olpc-update] or a usb key.
-There are no activities in the builds any more. You can get the Sucrose 0.81.4 activities and many other interesting activities with [http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Bert's_script bert's activity update script]).
-'''Note:''' This script will fail for the Browse activity - since we had a change in the activity name. The error will note that the activity is already installed.
-Workaround: Remove ~/Activities/Web.activity and unpack the downloaded bundle.
- - rm -rf ~/Activities/Web.activity
- - unzip Activities/Browse-92.xo -d Activities
-Then restart sugar (ctrl+alt+erase). The activity should now be available in the activity list view in the Home view.
