Re: [Sugar-devel] [GSoC 2024] Request for Proposal Review: Transition to GTK4 Exploration Project

[Ahmed Fatthi]

Hi,

I would recommend considering the development of a separate GTK4 toolkit. This 
approach could offer a more straightforward transition to GTK4, allowing you to 
leverage its new features without being constrained by compatibility concerns 
with existing GTK3-based components.

Best,
Ahmed

The GTK3 toolkit is in the sugar-toolkit-gtk3 repository.

I would imagine a GTK4 toolkit may be required, or the gtk3 repository
may be conditionally compiled and renamed.  Which?

Hello Soham,

Hopefully someone will read your draft proposal.

For your interest, in the Sugar Labs guide for participating in Google
Summer of Code, we have this text;

"should not be posted to our sugar-devel@ mailing list as a Google Docs (a 
document can change after you send the link, a document can disappear, the 
export feature may be turned off, and we don't want to require our members to 
use Google Docs)."

Please read the remainder of the page to learn more.

Re: [Sugar-devel] Proposal for Flatpak port project

[James Cameron]

I agree with Martín.  Porting from GTK 2 to GTK 3 is complex, and to
do it right requires building a GTK 2 environment so as to compare
behaviour before and after porting.  Porting from Python 2 to Python 3
is relatively straightforward by comparison.

Re: [Sugar-devel] Submission of Proposal and Video for GSoC Application

[Lionel Laské]

Hi Soham,

Your proposal is confusing.
You mention Sugarizer but your proposal is about "Add an AI-assistant to
the Write Activity" project which is related to Sugar.
Both Sugar and Sugarizer are hosted by SugarLabs and share the same spirit
but they don't use the same technical stack.
Walter and Ibiam are more appropriate than me to study your proposal.

Regards.

Lionel

Re: [Sugar-devel] GSoC 2024 : questions about wikipedia activity

[James Cameron]

The GSoC/Ideas-2024.md "Refactor the Wikipedia Activity to generate
plain-language summaries"
https://github.com/sugarlabs/GSoC/blob/master/Ideas-2024.md#refactor-the-wikipedia-activity-to-generate-plain-language-summaries

says "the Wikipedia activity is designed to help teachers extract
content from the Wikipedia in order to create lesson plans".

Actually, that feature set is implemented by the InfoSlicer activity.
https://github.com/sugarlabs/infoslicer

The Wikipedia activity is an offline viewer for Wikipedia pages.
https://github.com/sugarlabs/wikipedia-activity

It does not make sense to use the Wikipedia activity when online,
instead use the Browse activity, which is the web browser.

The workflow for teachers to use the Wikipedia activity is to run the
extraction process across the most popular articles, filter to remove
sensitive articles, and then generate a (very large) Sugar activity
bundle, which the students in a class can install.  It isn't used for
lesson plans, but as a general offline cache, especially for students
that have no internet while taking their class laptop home.  A very
special use case.

If the aim of the GSoC idea is to use AI to craft lesson plans from
Wikipedia content, then I suggest using the Browse activity instead.

Re: [Sugar-devel] [GSoC 2024] Request for Proposal Review: Transition to GTK4 Exploration Project

[Walter Bender]

Could you tell us a bit more about the actual migration? What has changed
and how does it impact Sugar? How does GNOME recommend approaching
migration? Are there lessons to be learned from the GTK2 --> GTK3 migration?

thx

[Sugar-devel] Submission of Proposal and Video for GSoC Application

[SOHAM SARODE]

Dear Sugar Labs Community,

I trust this message finds you in good spirits. I am reaching out to
formally present my draft proposal for the Google Summer of Code (GSoC)
program, specifically focusing on the Sugarizer project. Enclosed with this
email is the link to my draft proposal, which includes the completion of
the Pawn tutorial along with short videos. These materials are available in
the dedicated channel for the GSoC project I am keenly interested in.

I kindly request members of the Sugar Devel mailing list to take a moment
to review my draft proposal and offer your valuable feedback. Your insights
and suggestions will significantly contribute to refining and enhancing my
proposal as I progress toward its finalization for the GSoC application.

Thank you for considering my proposal, and I eagerly anticipate your
constructive feedback.

Best regards,
Soham Sarode

Re: [Sugar-devel] Proposal for Flatpak port project

[Martin Abente]

Hi !

Thanks for sharing your proposal, I have read through it.

My recommendation is that you reconsider the activities you selected.
Especially those that require ports to Python 3 and GTK 3.

The reason is simple; porting these activities to Python 3 and GTK 3 is a
whole project in itself. Note that porting activities to Python 3 and GTK 3
requires more than just writing the code, e.g., testing, reviews, releases,
etc. That would take a significantly longer time (than a week, as per the
proposal) for a large activity such as TamTam.

Plus, you have to account for the time required to port these to Flatpak.

So, try to find activities that are already ported to Python 3 and GTK 3
and then analyze the project complexity to come up with a schedule that
would fit in the GSoC duration.

Regards,
Martín.

[Sugar-devel] [GSoC 2024] Request for Proposal Review: Transition to GTK4 Exploration Project

[Ahmed Fatthi]

Hello,

I hope you're doing well. I've decided to switch my project focus from "Porting 
12 Activities to Flatpak" to "GTK4 Exploration." I believe this project aligns 
better with my skills and interests.

Could you please review my updated proposal for the GTK4 Exploration project? 
Your feedback would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you for your continued support.

Best regards,
Ahmed
