Re: [Sugar-devel] Enquiry Regarding Contribution To Write Activity Project

[James Cameron]

My guess is what we call "Tables" in English.

I'm not the right person to answer.  "git blame" shows the wording
came from Lionel.

https://github.com/sugarlabs/GSoC/blame/master/Ideas-2019.md#L474

Lionel speaks French.  These two Google Translations suggest that
"Array" is a valid translation;

"table in document" -> "tableau dans de document"

"array in document" -> "tableau dans de document"

Re: [Sugar-devel] Enquiry Regarding Contribution To Write Activity Project

[Ashish Aggarwal]

Hello James ,
I have a query . The idea page

refers
to having arrays in the text editor . Is the arrays here stand for arrays
in programming language or something else ?
I have attached screenshot with this mail .

Re: [Sugar-devel] Math_Hurdle activity keeps getting stuck

[James Cameron]

You mean the Math Hurdler activity.

https://github.com/sugarlabs/math-hurdler

No, you're not alone.  I saw this too.  I'm not surprised, as the
activity was unfinished and had latent problems that were preventing
testing with Sugar.  Other activities from the same team had similar
problems.

Also, the activity uses an older version of Sugargame.

The Sugargame 1.2 documentation and test activity gives very clear
guidance in how to structure the calls to Pygame while keeping the GTK
events also processed.  Please review Sugargame.

Godo discussion, thanks.

In addition to hardware limits, also try to avoid requiring internet

[Sugar-devel] Math_Hurdle activity keeps getting stuck

[Ashish Kumar]

Hi,
In math-hurdle activity , the activity freezes on startup, one of the
reasons behind which could have been starting pygame loop before activity
constructor returns. I have checked that the activity constructor is
returned before the main pygame loop is run  but i am still not able to
figure the problem out. Is this a problem that i alone am facing ?
Thank you

[Sugar-devel] Review of the GSoC proposal

[Prabhu Pant]

Hello mentors!

I am Prabhu Pant, a final year undergraduate student from College of
Technology, Pantnagar. I have been contributing to open source from a year
now and I would like to work on the project "Create a new set of activities
for Sugarizer". I have attached the link to my proposal. Please review.

Re: [Sugar-devel] GSOC19 proposal

[James Cameron]

It's not critical to me, since I'm not one of the coding mentors for
that idea.

However, the document would not flow well if the implementation was
added at that point in the document.  It may be appropriate to place
it at the end as an appendix, and give a summary and link inside
document.

[Jaskirat Singh]

Hi Sparsh,

I just went through your proposal, I see you added the link to another doc
where you wrote about implementation.
I think if you could merge that other doc in the same proposal only, that
would be much better I guess.
But overall it looks good.

Thanks
