thanks all for these suggestions I think we can include both a call for motivation (kids education) and competence (python)
I like the idea of Activities as an on-ramp - we certainly want to grow the ASLO ecosystem my instinct would be to start with education, but may be better to define target as Python devs? Maybe something like this: <SL logo> Python Developers! Develop Activities for the Sugar Learning Platform Help children learn with your skills - over 1,000,000 served join.sugarlabs.org feedback?
