Re: [Sugar-devel] Browse, vulnerable
Hi, James What is needed to provide Browse with WebKit2? I spent almost a year moving everything in Karma Learning System from Firefox (distributed with some releases of Sugar) to WebKit because that was introduced as the future direction for Sugar. Naturally, I don't want to even think about starting over again. Is anyone working on this? Is this the long-term solution (e.g. good for five+ years)?

Re: [Sugar-devel] Browse, vulnerable
Hi James, Borwse could eaisly be ported now, as webkit 2.11.4 finally includes essential apis for functionality. Maybe this will be for next cycle? Will the newer webkit version be avliable downstream on OLPC OS, or will you use the older webkit1 browse?

[Sugar-devel] [SLOB] scheduling our next meeting
Welcome Lionel, Tony, and Sameer to the new Sugar Labs oversight board. And welcome back Jose Miguel, Adam, and Claudia. Daniel, Gonzalo, and Chris, many thanks for all that you have done for the Sugar Lab community. Your efforts and generosity are much appreciated. Sam, Laura, and Ed, thank you for making the effort to become part of the SL oversight board. I hope yo will participate even without a voting role. Now that we have a new SLOB team, we need to find a regular time to meet. We are spread across more time zones than in the past, so it may be a bit more difficult to schedule a time that works for everyone (23UTC is great for UY and the US East Coast, but less convenient in FR and the US West Coast. And Tony is seemingly everywhere. I suppose we could use technology to set up a survey to choose a time of day, but perhaps the end points (Tony, Lionel, and Sameer) can narrow the search space for us first. Please discuss it. regards. -walter PS: I will update the SLOB mailing list ASAP. -- Walter Bender Sugar Labs http://www.sugarlabs.org ___ Sugar-devel mailing list Sugar-devel@lists.sugarlabs.org http://lists.sugarlabs.org/listinfo/sugar-devel
