Re: [Sugar-devel] Problems adding my source code to GIT at git.sugarlabs.org.

2009-12-20 Thread Behavior Vehikel
My problem pushing a local GIT repository to http://git.sugarlabs.org/
is now solved.

I made an error when generating my key. I told the key generator to
place my keys in an file named Nostalghia
 ssh-keygen -t rsa -f ~/.ssh/Nostalghia
. Running the key generator without -f works correctly. Without -f the
key generator used an default name and maybe ssh looks only in this
default file.

Thanks, Thomas

[Sugar-devel] Opportunity: Getting involved, maintaining the Write Activity

2009-12-20 Thread Simon Schampijer
Hey,

the Sugar Labs community is proud to hand out this great opportunity of 
involvement in Sugar and maintaining a key activity of the Sugar 
learning platform: The famous Write activity! [1]

Learners of all backgrounds and ages use the Write activity in their 
daily work. Write is an important part of making the Sugar learning 
platform a success.

At the moment the maintenance of the Write activity is taking care of by 
several people (Aleksey, Gary, Marc, Tomeu...). We are looking for a 
person that is leading this effort.

* What is maintaining about?
- bug fixes
- code cleanup
- code review (features and bug fixes by other developers)
- releases
- being responsive to questions, ideas and requests about the Write 
activity (mailing list)
- appearance: keeping the wiki etc updated

* What we offer?
- community: you will find people passionate about what they are doing. 
We do not only develop a learning platform, we try to live the Sugar 
pedagogy [2].
- high knowledge of the Write activity in the community: you can always 
ask for help if you get stuck at some point, you are not on your own
- relaxed and efficient: the work atmosphere is relaxed and 
communicative but there is enough formal planning and structure to 
minimize stress and keep things rolling effectively.
- flexible working hours
- more than 1 million users
- working on leading edge technology
- this is a volunteer position, but we offer highly competitive karma 
point salaries

This is a part time position. The basic maintaining effort is not taking 
too much time. Maybe less then 1 or 2 hours per week (maybe even less) 
if done regularly. If you get involved in Feature development, too - 
there is no upper limit on the time you can spend ;p

Interested? You can directly reply to this mail or send a mail to me [3].

Regards,
Simon

[Sugar-devel] [DESIGN] multiple selection in the journal

2009-12-20 Thread Tomeu Vizoso
Hi,

often have heard from the field about the need to select multiple
entries and delete them. Should we add a checkbox to every entry in
the list, or allow the user to select with shift-click and ctrl-click?
Or anything else?

Thanks,

Re: [Sugar-devel] [Marketing] Ad Design for StackOverflow

Many thanks Luke, a good catch as developers are difficult to reach

in fact I've been thinking of placing such an ad with the Ad Bard
network after our December free run for Blueberry is done - they cycle
ads on dev-oriented sites

Before we ask the designers to work on this, we need to decide what to write

Should we seek Activity, or platform devs?

Tomeu, what do you think a developer would react to?

e.g.:

Nonprofit volunteer org seeks talented developers interested in
improving the lives of Sugar's second million children. Join us!

Maybe first activities? Makes an easier start. Python or gtk+
experience should be enough.

Something like Got Python? Change the world!? Not sure how much room

Sounds pretty good, a reference to concrete technologies as python and

technologies they use and like.

  Does anybody have some spare time to whip up a 220px by 220px image?

[Sugar-devel] Karma v0.2 Released

2009-12-20 Thread Bryan Berry
We are proud to release Karma version 0.2 today. You can test out the demos
here http://karma.sugarlabs.org. You need Firefox 3.5 or Google
Chrome/Chromium to run the demo. You can download the Karma-2.xo bundle here
http://activities.sugarlabs.org/en-US/sugar/downloads/file/26522/karma-2.xo.
We now have a well-documented API and a four part tutorial.

The Karma Project aims to create high-quality open-source educational
software using openweb technologies for the Sugar desktop educational
environment. karma.js is a javascript library for manipulating HTML 5 and
SVG in any context.

New Features:
* Stable API  http://karma.sugarlabs.org/docs/index.html
* Now much more reliable
* Pre-loading of SVG images
* 10+ example lessons

Features that didn't make it into Release 0.2:
* Internationalization mechanism for inline text
* New browsing layout (Chakra)

I am particularly proud of the Karma version of Conozco a Uruguay. You can
try it out online right away.
http://karma.sugarlabs.org/examples/Conozco-Uruguay/index.html

If you are interested in Karma, the first step is to join our Google Group
and to look through our four-part tutorial series.

OLE Nepal and SugarLabs deserve special thanks for their continued support
