HowTo [ID# 21535]

Sugar Labs was created to provide a mechanism for supporting the Sugar community of volunteers. These volunteers are engaged in a variety of activities: some are writing software to improve Sugar; some are porting Sugar to new platforms; some are developing new activities that run in Sugar; some are helping to debug Sugar and help with quality assurance; some are writing documentation for Sugar developers and for those who use Sugar in the field; some are developing new scenarios for learning with Sugar; some are using Sugar and reporting upon their experiences to the community; and some are providing help and support.

Since we started Sugar Labs, we have been receiving a number of requests for help: porting Sugar to new distributions; tuning Sugar on a specific hardware platform; developing specific Sugar activity; helping with support in specific deployments, etc. Please use this page both to make requests and respond to request for help.

LiveCD in Spanish
Purport: I see as one of the selling points of Sugar that a non-expert user can use computers "off the bat". It has been reported to me that currently the LiveCD requires some tweaking at startup to adjust it to a given locale, which I feel is to ask too much precisely from users that are not skilled.
Goal: a LiveCD version that is localized in Spanish from startup, with no tweaking required, to be distributable among the Spanish-speaking public.
