It was clear to many of us at the > time that the Sugar learning platform could and should be made more > widely available and that in order for Sugar to grow, it would have to > become a community project, without extensive ties or dependencies on > any single company or organization. The Sugar Labs community is > expanding. The downsizing of OLPC's engineering efforts, while > significant to OLPC deployments in the short term, is actually a > catalyst for a needed change. It compels the deployments to be more > self-sufficient and more interconnected. Indeed, one direct > consequence of the events of last week is the acceleration of plans > for local Sugar Labs around the world. A decentralize approach, where > engineering investments in support of Sugar and learning are made > locally, is one of our great strengths. > An example are the new efforts on the road to make a Local Lab in Brasil http://sugarlabs.org/go/Brasil
