Has anyone else noticed how much slower Blueberry is than Strawberry? (FWIW, I found soas03-06 iso's comparable to Blueberry; no surprise here.) Using the same computer with similarly configured sticks and the same activity, here are rough comparisons: System boot: Strawberry - 32"; Blueberry -

Hi, two questions about ASLO statistics [1]: 1. How is the Active Daily Users statistic calculated? I wasn't aware of any feature in Sugar that would track how often activities are launched. It seems to have started to record nonzero results mid-September. 2. Any idea what's with the massive dr

It has recently been suggested to me that the religious/spiritual text in my OurMusic and OurMusicMC activities may not be well received by some, and that the text may hinder chances for deployment and even potentially cause individuals (or Sugar Labs) trouble. Needless to say, I'd like to avoid
