I have no experience with Launchpad, but am often frustrated by the performance of SL Trac. At my office we switched from Trac to Redmine for internal project development, since Trac's development seems to have slowed to a crawl. Provided a high priority is placed on migrating bug numbers and

Hi, have you considered reaching GNOME Chile for cooperation? Sugar's code is more than 90% from GNOME and the two upstreams regularly cooperate. There's lots of potential for resource pooling in the technical level, and also in the advocacy for free software in education. Regards, Tomeu --
