I knew it's possible to run Sugar in VirtualBox. I didn't know we was
producing vmdk images, I remember Peter was opposed to that. With
those images, is the installation one-click (reasonably close to
it) assuming you have virtualbox already installed?
If you have Oracle VirtualBox [2] installed:
Click on the ova icon for:
http://people.sugarlabs.org/Tgillard/sugar_trisquel_6.ova (as an
example) [1][3]
And the file will be imported into VirtualBox
Note:
You can also save this VM as a desktop shortcut from the VirtualBox top
menu.

The wiki page is terribly complicated...

Not only doable, has been done for some time now [1,2] and is
multi-platform (& what I use to demo Sugar on a Mac)
The Oracle PUEL license [3] very interestingly permits free
redistribution for educational purposes, opening the possibility
of a single installer, ideal for our needs.
In the past I have suggested approaching Oracle for a marketing
partnership under a CSR (corporate social responsibility) banner.

At least the virtualbox looks doable and a good way to show
Sugar.

The larger problem is the absence of a marketing
strategy, we need to know where we are going to
communicate effectively. In particular, we need to
choose and implement how to offer Sugar tryout to
teachers and journalists.
I can think of a couple of approaches
* Get Sugar running well on the CuBox-i. Find budget to
buy a few of those to distribute to chosen journalist and
teachers. Try to partner with SolidRun to offer Sugar as
an out-of-the-box installation option.
* Make it easy to run Sugar inside VirtualBox on Windows
and OS X. Without having investigated too deeply it
seems that a two step process would be both realistically
implementable and easy enough for the user
1 Install virtualbox
2 Install a Sugar application (which would take care of
setting up the appliance).
Thoughts? Other ideas? If we can agree on one or two
concrete, realistic approaches, I think we can at least
attempt to get them done for 3.102.
