Our contributions to Sugar have been numerous. We have extended the OLPC XS Schoolserver with our XS-AU [https://dev.laptop.org.au/projects/xs-au/wiki], creating a far more flexible collaboration solution. We have partnered with Activity Central to develop many improvements for the platform. These are currently being tested in Activity Central's Dextrose developer builds, and will be upstreamed in the near future.

On the user side, I'd like Sugar to be made available on more devices. I am encouraged by the work being made to port Sugar to GTK+ 3. This will lay the groundwork for Sugar on tablets, such as the XO-3.
