>From tomorrow's press release, worked on by the Sugar Labs Marketing Team:
"Today's Strawberry release is meant for classroom testing; feedback ([email protected]) will be incorporated into the next version, available towards the end of 2009." Sebastian surely meant to say "our final Sugar on a Stick v1 release". This version follows many snapshots. The roadmap is here: http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Sugar_on_a_Stick/Roadmap The Sugar / Fedora / OLPC version numbering is difficult to follow, which encouraged us to associate a flavor with Sugar on a Stick versions and to downplay the number. Note that Sugar v0.84 is distro-independent, while Sugar on a Stick v1 Strawberry is Sugar v0.84 plus Fedora 11 plus some other tools. V1 of SoaS had been planned for the fall in order to get up to speed on the noncode aspects (documentation...), but was moved up by the development team. thanks Sean Sugar Labs Marketing Coordinator On Tue, Jun 23, 2009 at 12:33 PM, Bert Freudenberg<[email protected]> wrote: > On 23.06.2009, at 08:21, Edward Cherlin wrote: > >> On Mon, Jun 22, 2009 at 11:14 PM, Ebtihaj Obaidi >> <[email protected]> wrote: >>> >>>> ter info: >>>> >>>> >>>> Ladies and Gentlemen, >>>> >>>> I'm pleased to announce that our final v1 release called strawberry has >>>> just been composed!
