Collaboration in the Sugar sense is simply helping kids play together. Kids play together all the time. They talk, they run, they throw balls back and forth. Sugar allows kids to talk and play and learn together.
Collaboration in the Sugar sense is simply helping kids play together (where "play" is our name for the hardest work children do, and the most important way they [http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Collaborative_Discovery discover] how the world (physical and social) works). Kids play together all the time. They talk, they run, they pretend, they throw balls back and forth. Sugar supports kids talking and playing and learning together.
'''Activities''' - Activities, in the Sugar world, are the programs and applications on which kids learn.

Once we show children [[The_Undiscoverable/Collaboration|how to use Sugar collaboration]], that is all there is to the mechanics when everything works.
But sometimes there are problems.

'''XMPP Server''' - At the bottom to the stack is a XMPP server. These are often referred to as jabber servers because the first popular XMPP Server was called jabberd.

== Testing ==
To test collaboration using a single development system, you can run multiple Sugar instances on the
same machine:
* Create a test user
user$ sudo useradd -m test1
* Become the test user. If $DISPLAY is not preserved, you may have to set it manually. And you may have to unset XAUTHORITY.
user$ sudo -i -u test1
test1$ export DISPLAY=:0
test1$ unset XAUTHORITY
* Copy-paste the output of "xauth list" ran from your regular account
test1$ xauth add giskard.codewiz.org/unix:0 MIT-MAGIC-COOKIE-1 9be6c305b20ee7803a7280da553f170e
* This requires your home to be world-accessible
test1$ cd ~user/src/sugar/sugar-jhbuild
test1$ ./sugar-jhbuild run sugar-emulator
* Repeat the above procedure as many time as desired to test N-way collaboration
