[Sugar-devel] [AC UPDATE] The upstream side of Sugar
Hi everyone, David has asked me to write a bit about the upstream side of things. Since I'm also going to provide a glimpse about my future plans for Sugar, I'm CC'ing sugar-devel. As a general rule, the more downstream you get, the nearer to the user you are and the more immediate are the problems you're trying to solve. Reverse this and it reads: The more upstream you get, the larger and more diverse the (indirect) user base will be, the more general your solutions need to be and the focus needs to shift to long term development. Or to put it short: Downstream is about tuning for particular users, while upstream is about the Big Picture. This doesn't imply upstream doesn't do any day-to-day tasks and is always slow - the number of bug fixes and minor tweaks that went into Sugar last year is too large for me to count (there were 300 commits total). The last week, culminating in yesterdays Design Team meeting [1], was a nice example of how efficiently we can work together. But as upstream we need to think about long term development. How to adjust to changing user needs and technologies [2] and also ensure that the code doesn't disintegrate into an incoherent mass, but stays understandable and working: maintainable. According to the latest rumours [3], Sugar has a user base of over two million children. Every single bug will likely affect thousands of students. It's unavoidable that this influences our decisions: we want to provide them with an optimal experience so they can learn _by_ using the computer, not learn how to work around bugs and deficiencies. This means we strive for very high code quality - emphasising the maintainability over short term solutions that might improve some part of the Sugar experience. Of course, raising the bar too high for contributors is bad in the long run, too: If it's too hard, people will simply stop contributing. And this hits our most precious resource (on the technology side of the project): developers. Few developers means fewer time spent on fixing bugs, adding features, making Sugar better. I.e.: only minor improvements in experience. Hopefully we are now on a way to avoid at least some of the pitfalls. Dextrose and OLPC are taking up the downstream role and work on the immediate needs of users. They will take care of working with users on their problems and fixing them. That leaves upstream Sugar free to worry a bit less about bugs and focus more on expanding Sugar. Of particular importance is welcoming new contributors and their work (and of course welcoming back some former contributors!). Instead of asking them to improve their patches during many rounds of review, I will now do the fix-ups (including phrasing good commit descriptions - these are more important to the core developers than to occasional contributors). But even working better with contributors is not going to be enough. The number of open tickets is approaching four digits [4]. OLPC is going to work on tablet PCs [5] once the XO-1.75 is finished, rendering the current Sugar interaction design (based on particular characteristics of pointer devices with relative coordinates and more than one button) unusable. What we need is much more developers. More than we can train from scratch (by hiring university alumni) using the available resources. What we need is to tap into the pool of Open Source developers that already exist. We need to take more existing components where possible, focussing on making only the ones ourselves that are clearly insufficient or missing [6] (like the Journal and data store). This leverages the work of the communities around the existing components - in particular the Gnome community. We also need to make Sugar more interesting for developers. Eating our own dog food is the best way to get bugs noticed and fixed fast or even at all. Developers are specialists and require a tool box that is tuned for them in order to be productive. Most of the Sugar developers do their Sugar hacking outside of Sugar because they are more productive that way. If we want them to work inside Sugar, we need to make it adjustable to their needs. We need to allow them to mix match components like the window manager, and to configure Sugar in a way that works best for them. Some might argue that this misses the target user base of Sugar. But I'll argue back that Sugar is not just about low floor (I'm not intending to get rid of that part), but also about no ceiling. Children evolve into adults, users into developers. And with activities like EToys [7], the latter distinction is blurred even today. Thanks to everyone who followed me through to the end. I didn't intend this text to get that long (actually I was more worried about not having enough to write about :) ). Seemed like there was a lot to talk about piled up. I invite everyone to take a look at my current brain dump [8] and start discussing the individual ideas. Let's work together to make Sugar a (better) place for all

[Sugar-devel] Concept Mapping Activity and Labyrith
This is a proposal for discussion to develop concept mapping mode within Labyrinth or as an independent activity using the code base of Labyrinth. I elaborate below how Labyrinth can be developed/modified further to support concept mapping. 1. Concept mapping requires, unlike mind maps, names/labels to be given to each link. 2. A mode switch can be provided to change between mind maps and concept maps. 3. Keeping the map while in concept map mode should create a file which stores mode preference + the map. 4. Concept mapping requires multiple parents (this is possible in labyrith, but by delinking the nodes after making them.) We can possibly achieve this by adding a node with a KeyPress + MouseClick on the canvas. 5. Concept mapping requires cross links between nodes (this is already possible in Labyrinth) 6. An option to keep in CmapTools format (which is an XML ecnoding) for data exchange between other concept mapping apps. I would like to know what your reactions are to this proposal. Please comment on the feasibility. gnowledge lab (http://lab.gnowledge.org) can undertake this development work with help from the current developers of Labyrith. Of course, if the current team is happy to implement these features, that will be wonderful.

Actually we were talking about this need here at OLPC (today!!!) as well. The Concept Maps are often used in education. If you would find ways to enhance Labyrinth, that would be great.

Re: [Sugar-devel] [PATCH sugar-datastore] don't choke if timestamp property is missing
Excerpts from Simon Schampijer's message of Mon Feb 14 21:01:18 +0100 2011: So if the timestamp is missing we will create the entry with the current timestamp when we update_the_index. I guess there is no better timestamp we can set. Exactly. I considered setting it to 0 instead, but the current time seemed to be a marginally better fit. Do we have other properties we should care about? None that the data store itself requires in order to work properly (except for those we already check for). When restoring the other properties we set as well update_metadata = True, I think you have to do that here as well. Yeah, good idea. creation_time might have been written before timestamp (and the latter not landed on disk). Actually that gives me an idea: We could try checking creation_time and ctime. I'm not sure the rare case of timestamp missing is warranting the additional code complexity of checking those two properties, though.

Re: [Sugar-devel] [DESIGN] Reflect internet connectivity in the 'Network' frame icon
[cc += peace-corps@sl-devel] I think everyone agrees that 'more (than current)' information can be conveyed to the user which might actually be of use... Everyone has raised very valid points... Lets aim to address the simple issues first, try them out in different (network setup) environments incrementally and keep (please) this thread alive... * * * * * * * * * * Here's my take... The Sugar UI should make network health discoverable. Good point in general. To what is trying to get solved, I'd word it as Sugar UI should make network _affordances_ discoverable. Yes! What are the use cases for such information? Michael suggested a number of mechanisms which can be reliably used to determine 'levels of network connectivity' In particular: a) are we trying to expose affordances that are useful when the network is working perfectly or are we more interested in making discoverable those affordances that will be useful when things are broken? Actually, both. In particular, is this the core issue? No. The core issue is determining the ways that information can or should be used. That will determine what we implement both at the backend and UI wise before jumping into finer details. b) are we more interested in making indicators (whose status is automatically updated) or in sensors that can be activated to learn about the world? My intention was to have automatically updating indicators. Are there good use cases for implementing the feature as a 'sensor'? Anish started a thread with a [DESIGN] tag. I took that to mean, in part, that he wanted feedback about the interplay of his idea with the Sugar HIG and the broader intended Sugar UX and I tried to recast the discussion in those terms. +1, Exactly * * * * * * * * * * == Miachel's proposed implementation == For the sake of concreteness, here are some examples of how these considerations might affect Anish's general idea: 1) Let's make an autonomous binary internet indicator to be displayed on the frame and in the network-view. The sensor driving the indicator will periodically make HTTP HEAD requests at a deployment-configured rate against a URL chosen uniformly at random from a deployment-configured list. The indicator will be happy when the most recent request succeeded with status code 200 and will be sad otherwise. 2) Let's make a three-state autonomous indicator to be displayed on the frame and in the network view. The sensor driving the indicator will periodically run a complete network diagnostic procedure which, at a minimum, checks that we: 1) have a network interface, 2) that is up, 3) with an IP address, 4) that the interface IP is pingable 5) with default route configured 6) that the default route is pingable 7) with a nameserver entry in resolv.conf 8) that is pingable 9) that successfully resolves a list of test addresses 10) such that the resolved IPs are pingable 11) such that there are HTTP servers running on port 80 on the IPs returned from a configured subset of the resolved names that that return status code 200 for HTTP 1.0 HEAD requests for url / The indicator will be happy if all tests past in the most recent test run. The indicator will be sad if any hard tests failed. The indicator will be worried if all hard tests passed but some soft tests failed. If the indicator is sad or worried, then hovering or clicking on the indicator will display a modal dialog or palette listing all tests, showing their pass/fail status, and showing folded blocks of logs for all tests. Thoughts? Michael [1]: As background, I'm going to assume that an affordance is a quality of an object, or an environment, that allows an individual to perform an action (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Affordance). Please correct me if you prefer a different definition. [2]: For example, are all these opportunities included? * to join a shared activity * to send an object to a friend * to store or to load a backup and * to browse the web How about these? * to join #sugar-devel * to host a web page * to copy an activity from a friend's journal Or these? * to ping a default route? * to resolve names to IP addresses? * to send IP packets to and to receive packets from public IPs? * to communicate without interference from middlepeople? * * * * * * * * * * I don't have much idea as to what should be the finer details of a 'network indicator' so I won't argue here. We could code something pretty quickly that implements all or a part of the above. We can get a rough initial version with a ping to 'schoolserver', and a ping to a configurable internet host. * * * * * * * * * * Couldn't we use the presence service (or its equivalent)? I've always wanted to see a schoolserver icon in the mesh view... from which the user could (re-)register, initiate a

A mode switch can be provided to change between mind maps and concept maps. 3. Keeping the map while in concept map mode should create a file which stores mode preference + the map. 4. Concept mapping requires multiple parents (this is possible in labyrith, but by delinking the nodes after making them.) We can possibly achieve this by adding a node with a KeyPress + MouseClick on the canvas. 5. Concept mapping requires cross links between nodes (this is already possible in Labyrinth) 6. An option to keep in CmapTools format (which is an XML ecnoding) for data exchange between other concept mapping apps. I would like to know what your reactions are to this proposal. Please comment on the feasibility. gnowledge lab (http://lab.gnowledge.org) can undertake this development work with help from the current developers of Labyrith. Of course, if the current team is happy to implement these features, that will be wonderful. Our lab does teacher training on Sugar in India, and we desperately need a free concept mapping application. Once I hear your views, we can start the work as soon as possible. thanks in advance -- Nagarjuna Hi Nagarjuna, thanks for sharing your interest! Actually we were talking about this need here at OLPC (today!!!) as well. The Concept Maps are often used in education. If you would find ways to enhance Labyrinth, that would be great. For example, changing the color of a bubble might work as a first step to indicate the relationship: (Sugar) | (UI) | (GNOME) Having the 'UI' bubble in another color than the 'Sugar' and 'GNOME' bubble would indicate that it is an relationship. I am sure there are other and better ways - just a quick idea. There was a quick fix added to make floating text labels that I was not really happy with from a design perspective, but folks were hollering for it and I had no time to work on it, so I let it pass. What should have happened is for the label tool button to actually be a thought style button. It would at minimum allow 1) the default box style as is; 2) a line style (where the spline link forms a horizontal line under the text AKA a labeled link as is being requested now for concept maps); 3) none, so text can just float on its own like a label. That would have covered much of the needs I've seen mentioned. Regarding colour, the plan was to use user fill/stroke colour during collaborative editing of a single map (not yet implemented), so that each user could see who was editing/adding what thought, with all other unfocused thoughts showing in a monochrome style, hence no options to tinker with thought colours. --Gary.
