;progress of GCI 2017:Almost 400 students, how to make a pull request, some solid contributions, some new activities.

;cross-platform development:There are broken JavaScript activities that don't run on Sugar desktop.  Contributions are being wasted, and opportunity lost.  We had a Cross-Platform environment.  We have attracted JavaScript Web developers instead of JavaScript Cross-Platform developers.  We need Cross-Platform developers to merge the diverged libraries, and apply Cross-Platform practices to both libraries and activities.
