Can I confirm that port 8000 is no longer needed by sugar-stats-server within the current (imminent) release of XSCE/IIAB 6.2? Profound thanks to all, including James Cameron who gave our table @ https://github.com/XSCE/xsce/wiki/IIAB-Networking a very solid 1st pass below~ On Wed, Feb 22, 2017

Thanks to Tim Moody: https://github.com/XSCE/xsce/wiki/IIAB-Menuing Above is a near-final draft, as Internet-in-a-Box (IIAB/XSCE) 6.2 will be released in coming days. I've added clarifications for installers/educators/adopters less familiar with our hacker jargon, explaining how and why
