Dear edubuntu developers, We are looking for volunteers to help us create a package of the Scratch educational programming environment <http://scratch.mit.edu> for Ubuntu in general and Edubuntu in particular. The current installers (Win/Mac) come with all the necessary elements needed to run Scratch (Squeak, some DLLs for Windows) as well as sample projects and an image+sound library. We would like to have the equivalent for Ubuntu.
We have been able to get Scratch run on the XO OLPC except for MIDI support and already have two plugins for Ubuntu that allow users to use the fullscreen presentation mode as well as a plugin for Unicode support. If you want to give it a try, you can probably do this: sudo apt-get install squeak wget unzip wget http://scratch.mit.edu/files/WinScratch.zip unzip WinScratch.zip squeak Scratch/Scratch.image -- Andrés -- edubuntu-devel mailing list edubuntu-devel@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/edubuntu-devel
