Perhaps it would be more appropriate to discuss how SugarLabs has been able to use gitHub to manage the GTK transformation of the Sugar activities.  or to focus on the work of one project in GSOC or GCI. I would hope our goal from the session is to attract volunteers to support the effort.

Hi!

We have been working on this idea to present a Sugar Labs project at the
Poster session of Pycon Cleveland 2019. The PyCon 2019 conference, which
will take place in Cleveland, is the largest annual gathering for the
community using and developing the Open-Source Python programming language.
It would be a great opportunity to present a Sugar Labs Project at the
event and this will increase the outreach and a great chance to let people
know more about Sugar Labs.We are keen to have your suggestions on this and
also wish to discuss which Sugar Labs project would be appropriate to be
presented in a Poster Session in Pycon Cleveland 2019. It would be great,
if you could take out some time to give us some ideas on which Sugar Labs
project can we present for the poster session. The link below shows some of
the past projects presented in the Poster Session of Pycon 2018:

The Sugar Desktop and the majority of the Sugar activities are written in
Python, so it would make sense to focus there. (Sugarizer and Music Blocks
are JavaScript and hence would not be appropriate topics for this venue.)

To me the thing that is most interesting is the scaffolding we built into
Sugar to expose the underlying Python code to our users (e.g., view source)
and to encourage them to explore on their own (the copy mechanism that
gives them them their own copy of a an activity to modify, Pippy, which is
a Python playpen and can be used to create new Sugar activities, and Turtle
Blocks, that provides a Python version of anything they write in the Logo
block language. Also, the IRC activity, which invites newbie developers to
follow the discussions of seasoned developers. All of these are topics I
touched upon in my 2013 talk at PyCon.

regards.
