Ok, so the idea is to focus our resources on the distribution level?
I'm not very fond of that because:
- polishing a distribution is _lots_ of work. Canonical, Novell,
Redhat, etc. are putting lots of resources into there. I think that a

I moved everything that was at k.sl.o to the old/ folder
we need to use git for refreshing k.sl.o . scp and rsync'ing our
changes is just a headache
some time this week we should move the chakra/index.html to the root

Tomeu,
Your suggestion was right on the money. When I run a simple program
from Terminal that prints out the files it finds it goes through my SD
card (also mounted on /media) and seems to stall in the depths of the

Hi everybody,
as noted in our roadmap for Sugar on a Stick [1], we are going to have a
joint test day with the folks from Fedora's Quality Assurance [2] to
improve the quality of SoaS on its way to version 2 (in November).
The test day is scheduled to take place on September 3, which is this

I am in personal contact with Stallman (rms) on this. Who else here
knows him? We have met several times at computing events, and
discussed other questions in e-mail. I was a factor in his choice of
the XO as his main computer, which unfortunately lasted only a short

Tomeu,
It turned out that fixing the problem with .olpc.store was pretty
simple and I now have an Activity that is functional. The next
problem is, it works differently in .82 and .84. In .82 every file on
the thumb drive and SD card is treated as a Journal entry and listed
out by the datastore

Hi,
what about a development team meeting tomorrow? Now that feature
freeze is past us, we should discuss how we are going to make sure
that Sugar 0.88 is going to be a rock solid release.
If you plan to help with testing, bug triaging or development, please
considering passing by.

Okay, a little holiday happened with me and then had to read through
100+ olpc emails and then realized that there is a spam filter on my
email which blocked sugar emails since july so it took some time to
catch up but here I am... :)

I have been looking at the process for creating and release new activities.
I have been wondering, 'What is the advantage of distributing
activities through distros as Honey?' It would seem that installing
the activities as .xo bundles via the activity-bundle facility is more
reliable and less

I do not know what was the conclusion about this _completely

Folks,
Before you know how Friends work, the Friends view it is completely barren
except for the central XO-person and, as a result, is rather unusable. What are
some ways that we could make the function of this screen more discoverable?
So far, I've thought of a couple of things which might do
