As David says, I will have the big challenge of directing AC, a company which has at the core of its business providing services for deployments using the Sugar learning platform. I've been involved in the olpc/sugar ecosystem since 2007 (for more info about me, please see my profilehttp://plus.google.com/u/0/104046304533768660303/aboutand follow me in google+). Much of my work was as a volunteer, having a strong focus on promoting the community work. One year ago I was hired by AC to work in the company's community outreach area, where I could work in promoting events like eduJAM, Sugar Day Junín, Mexico City Sugar workshop and Sugar Camp Lima. Sugar is based on the great work that the whole community systematically does for it, to which I hope AC can contribute even more in this new stage. AC provides deployments with technical solutions tailored to their particular needs, promoting at the same time the community growth by supporting local labs, hiring outstanding programmers, upstreaming code and sharing knowledge. In my vision, these professional services are required to keep the ecosystem healthy and it's our biggest challenge doing this sustainably. I won’t be much online in the last weeks of December as I'll take some days off before assuming the new position, but I’m very open to receiving by email or in #sugar IRC your doubts, suggestions, criticisms or ideas, as I want to keep the contact fluid.
