[Sugar-devel] Students looking to contribute

2010-10-13 Thread WSU CS401
Hello,
   We are 4 students looking to contribute, this semester, for class
credit.  We are all senior Computer Science majors at Worcester State
College and are eager to get started.  We have been researching the Wiki and
Python for the past couple of weeks and feel that our time might be best
spent contributing to bug fixes on the Activities.  So if anyone has or
knows of any bugs we can work on, please let us know. Or could some one
point us in the right direction so we can get coding.

Thanks for any help,
~Lindsey L.

Nice to meet you!  Can you tell us a bit more about your background
and experience with python, linux, and system programing so we can
find appropriate bugs for you?

We maintain a list of bugs know as 'sugar-love' which tend to be
introductory in nature. But the best thing to do would be to find an
activity you enjoy and contact the maintainer for suggestions. (For
example, Im the maintainer of Measure, Turtle Art, Visual Match,
Abacus, SlideRule, et al. and I have a long backlog of things I'd like
to work on.)

If you're going to work on Activities you will want to check out Make
Your Own Sugar Activities!:

http://en.flossmanuals.net/ActivitiesGuideSugar/Introduction

You can also download a PDF to read offline from the Internet Archive:

Good luck with your project.
