Sean;
There is a new Feb 20 2011 (4th version) of trisquel-sugar_4.1_i686
http://devel.trisquel.info/sugar/trisquel-sugar_4.1_i686.iso
It will boot from the Cd in my MacBook Air and if used in conjunction
with a persistent USB of the same build
will save changes.

This is really a great improvement,
Thanks to Ruben (quidam)

I have not yet built an update for the VirtualBox Appliance which is
still version 2

I am personally convinced VMs are the way forward for solving our
ease-of-installation teacher demo problem, but not everyone is (cf
last marketing meeting [1]). Oracle (ex-Sun) VirtualBox has perfect
licensing for us - we can distribute installers for nonprofit
educational uses, which means a single Zip file with VirtualBox
installer, image, parameter file, and instructions PDF
This also means we can prepare versions already set up with
es/fr/it/de languages/keyboards too, but that implies some
organisation of course
Priority right now is getting website revamp underway, then Uruguay
Garmin-Cervelo race sponsorship, then "product" marketing later when
we've had more time for QA and determine next steps for SoaS

This is a great sugar!
I have uploaded the New 02/18/2011 VirtualBox Appliance here:

I'm very impressed!
Shall we give it more visibility? I vote for making this the recommended
download for emulator images.
Now, how can we make this easy to try for non-technical users? Is there
a way to bundle up the VM with a player in a single download that works
for Windows and Mac?
