* The possibility to launch Base Software in heterogeneous
  software and hardware environments.
* Using Base Software, provide access to various Content
  (Sugar activities, artifacts created by Sugar activities, books, etc.)
  created within the Sugar community.
* Using Base Software, provide collaborative functionality to
  support Social activity around the Content.
* Instruments and workflows to adapt Content and Base Software
  to specific needs that Sugar Deployment might face,
  including extreme ones like off-line environments and restricting
  hardware.

• [Sugar-devel] [SWEETS] Testing collaboration related fixes 05/07/2012

Hi all!
Following the plan for Harmonic Distribution v0.2 (which will be a basis
for Sugar Distribution to use in peruvian pilot), in Sugar Shell code
were made fixes that are intended to make Telepathy (everything related to
Neighbourhood view and Sugar Activities sharing/joining) more stable
(that was broken since global redesign started after 0.88 release).
Fixes are accessible from SweetsDistribution:Factory repository. Follow
regular Sweets Distribution installation instructions[1] to install
fixed Sugar Shell on all supported platforms[2].
Some visible changes in F1 view:
* the number of buddies should be increased from ~20 to 70-90
  some Sugar versions (maybe 0.90-0.92) don't publish information about
  nickname/colors on regular basis; this information are being stored on
  disk for now
* for some buddies, server still don't have information about colors
  (replaced by gray) and nick names (jabber ids)
If you have a time and want to help Puno deployment pilot, please,
consider possibility to install sweets-desktop from Factory repository
and do some testing of collaboration functionality.

Some tips:

* while interacting with another buddies, make sure that all
  participants use Sweets Distribution (some F1 buddies might misbehave)
* the good criteria of stability level of new Sugar is comparing with
  how collaboration happen in 0.88 Sugar.

There is a git user named "pootle" that acts as the proxy by which all
PO file translations are committed from the Pootle server.  Please
make pootle a committer on the repo and I will make the connections
between git and the Pootle server.
