Re: [IAEP] "Windows Is Coming" (Dave Crossland)

Sam, I encourage you to find answers to that question :)

Lionel, I don't mean to discourage or disparage your work. I wish to
explore all the options for the future of the Sugar python codebase. I
would not be surprised if in 5 years Sugar python has been completely
abandoned and there is only Sugarizer, and OLPC OS is a Chromium distro.

Re: [IAEP] "Windows Is Coming" (Dave Crossland)

[Sam Parkinson]

The idea of running Sugar on NaCl is a good idea in my opinion.

* The Chrome web store "apps" are downloaded in some form - which is 
good as even an NaCl sugar would probs be 500mb+
* It would make a good "gateway sugar" for people as it is easy to run 
on many platforms.
* I would think of it as a VM, but just super easy to install, and 
eaiser for us to maintain

* Can we actually just run it as a VM under NaCl?

Thanks,
Sam

If we want to grow Sugar's userbase 10x, I think Sugar must run not 
only on

GNU but also Windows and Mac OS X.


Guess I don't need to say that it's exactly my though :-)
FYI, I've qualified Sugarizer on Windows 10.
I've tested it both on Windows 10 Desktop and on Windows 10 Mobile.

A preview video is available here [1].
If you're interested to test it, you could generate yourself the 
package from the Cordova command line using instructions here [2] 
(replace "android" by "windows").


It will be available on Windows Store in the next version.
