Hi Tomeu, Walter, et al, FYI Uruguay already posted some presentations and training based on the existing UI.
See: http://www.ceibalflorida.blogspot.com/ posts from April. I'm not up to speed on proposed Sugar changes so it may have minimal impact. Thinking about the "hot corners" pop-up frame thingy, Nepal asked that be deprecated and I agree based on my personal experience and that of my kids. The only thing I have heard people use it for is the copy and paste functionality. Waveplace lead mentioned that and its used in the Uruguay training presentation linked above. If you do take out the popup frame make sure to come up with a new copy and paste mechanism. Uruguay also has a multi-day training planned for June: http://www.inscripcioncursotics.8m.com/programa.htm They're probably OK with updating their docs but you should bring them in the loop ahead of time, if possible. BTW can you ask Peru to post their manual somewhere? Colombia just asked for Spanish documentation and I'm sure it will be useful for many other countries too.

The percentage of the user manual that is dependent on the old UI is only in a very few places. If the new UI really simplifies sharing, activity management, and notifications, then I think they'd be more than willing to accept the change. I'll talk to them again when I see them next week. -walter _______________________________________________ Devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/devel
