1. Project name : Clock - What Time Is It? 2. Existing website, if any : http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Clock_activity 3. One-line description : A clock activity to learn how to tell time.
4. Longer description : The Clock activity aims at two simple goals: * As a teaching tool to help children learn how to read time. * To give the children a way to know the time it is, with their XO, even if they don't own a watch. In its current version (v5), it has three display modes: analog clock with detailed hours ticks, nice clock face or digital clock. The child can also display the time in full letters and listen to the talking clock. 5.

Committer list Please list the maintainer (lead developer) as the first entry. Only list developers who need to be given accounts so that they can commit to your project's code repository, or push their own. There is no need to list non-committer developers. Username Full name SSH2 key URL E-mail -------- --------- ------------ ------ #1 pierre Pierre Métras http://www.alterna.tv/ssh [EMAIL PROTECTED] #2 #3 ... If any developers don't have their SSH2 keys on the web, please attach them to the application e-mail. 7. Preferred development model [X] Central tree. Every developer can push his changes directly to the project's git tree. This is the standard model that will be familiar to CVS and Subversion users, and that tends to work well for most projects. [ ] Maintainer-owned tree. Every developer creates his own git tree, or multiple git trees. He periodically asks the maintainer to look at one or more of these trees, and merge changes into the maintainer-owned, "main" tree. This is the model used by the Linux kernel, and is well-suited to projects wishing to maintain a tighter control on code entering the main tree. If you choose the maintainer-owned tree model, but wish to set up some shared trees where all of your project's committers can commit directly, as might be the case with a "discussion" tree, or a tree for an individual feature, you may send us such a request by e-mail, and we will set up the tree for you. 8. Set up a project mailing list: [ ] Yes, named after our project name [ ] Yes, named ______________________ [X] No When your project is just getting off the ground, we suggest you eschew a separate mailing list and instead keep discussion about your project on the main OLPC development list. This will give you more input and potentially attract more developers to your project; when the volume of messages related to your project reaches some critical mass, we can trivially create a separate mailing list for you. If you need multiple lists, let us know. We discourage having many mailing lists for smaller projects, as this tends to stunt the growth of your project community. You can always add more lists later. 9. Commit notifications [ ] Notification of commits to the main tree should be e-mailed to the list we chose to create above [ ] A separate mailing list, <projectname>-git, should be created for commit notifications [X] No commit notifications, please 10. Shell accounts As a general rule, we don't provide shell accounts to developers unless there's a demonstrated need. If you have one, please explain here, and list the usernames of the committers above needing shell access. 11. Translation [X] Set up the laptop.org Pootle server to allow translation commits to be made [ ] Translation arrangements have already been made at _______________ 12. Notes/comments: I'm particularly interested to get new localizations added when the activity is included in Pootle. These can be tricky to do as the localizer has to write a set of rules to translate the numeric time to words using the activity inference engine. But I think a localized talking clock can be an invaluable tool to learn telling the time. _______________________________________________ Devel mailing list Devel@lists.laptop.org http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/devel
