Thanks Kurt and wolfgang, The availability of live CDs is critical to the success of Sugar Labs. Sugar has taken a couple of pretty hard blows over the last couple of months. When working on outreach, the ability to point to a liveCD is invaluable. Disclaimer: As always, I may be completely wrong in my observation and conclusions. We are working on making Sugar Labs more engaged in the community. As a result, we are focusing on developing and maintaining the Sugar software. Distribution is/should be handled by our partners at OLPC, Fedora, Debian, and Ubuntu. I will do whatever I can to grow the overall market for Sugar desktops, but I feel most comfortable directing people to skolelinux for LiveCDs.
