Personal agenda:
I'm exploring the possibility to build a small team of Sugar hackers that would offer consulting services such as porting to specific hardware platforms or development of features.  Internet would be our office. Over the next few years, computers will become central in world education. This will in turn stimulate the creation of a florid industry offering hardware, software, and contents for the specific needs of schools. Sugar has a great competitive advantage over any proprietary offering on the horizon and it has a huge momentum.  This is why I also see Sugar as a rewarding business opportunity to invest in.
