==Sugar on a Stick Improve Deployability==

The good news is Sugar on a Stick is being successfully used in Schools around the world now!  Based on these experiences this is a list of some of the known challenges that people may face piloting Sugar on a Stick right now.  September is start of school in the US, so we expect to see an increase in teachers trying Sugar.  We want to be ready with suggestions and work arounds as people face these challenges.

===Sticks are dieing a lot - Make sticks more robust===
+
''Use Case''
 +
A teacher should be able to create a USB stick, add activities, add some content, change the language, change the jabber server etc. Then create new sticks that reflect these changes but do not copy the name, color or collaboration key.
   −
===Backup and recovery====
+
It would be great if the teacher could use an inexpensive USB hub to burn more then one stick at a time.
===What is a reasonable expectation for the role of the XS in Sugar on a Stick deployments in the next 6 months?===
+
 
===Collaboration is unreliable and thus frustrating===
+
===Stick failure===
Its working fairly well in the wired network at the GPA lab, but no other use case seems to work reliably.
+
 
===Using a CD helper takes a lot of prep time before and after class===
+
Discussions of stick failure and alternative file structures is now at [[../Stick Layout]]
A floppy helper would reduce it. A VM solution might also reduce it.

===Role of the XS in SoaS deployments===
 +
What is a reasonable expectation for the role of the XS in Sugar on a Stick deployments in the next 6 months?
 +
===Collaboration is unreliable and thus frustrating===
 +
Its working fairly well in the wired network at the GPA lab, but no other use case seem to work reliably.  We need to expand the Poets Guide to [[Collaboration]] to give people hints on how to set up a scenario that will work for them.

This is an the general todo list for SoaS. If you've any ideas or requests, please add them here.
+
===Using a CD helper===
 +
Using a CD helper takes a lot of prep time before and after class.
    +
A floppy helper would reduce it.  A VM solution might also reduce it.  A network boot helper would also reduce it, for PCs that support a network boot.
