with others towards a revised OPDS spec. They are considering local
library v. global library issues, for which an offline OLPC classroom
provides a good example.

We soon need to roll out updated version of Nepal's custom suite of
activities, E-Paath. The updated bundle weighs in at a whopping 180 MB
zipped and 300 MB unzipped. We have found it impractical to use the
sugar-update-control mechanism to update the bundle. While E-Paath is
large, the updated

My major concern against porting to Android is that Java is a horrible

will add more languages, though.
A more long term solution would be using PyPy, since it has
significantly lower memory usage and better optimisation

There is a project doing a bit of that, http://code.google.com/p/jythonroid/
Jython just got a new compiler though, it should be possible to retarget it.

If we get pywebkitgtk in sugar then I can convert my blog client for
