Tampoco sé mucho de este tipo de licitaciones pero lo que si me parece interesante - en especial en comparación con la licitación de Rwanda que parece haber sido parecido en su enfoque - que la describción en la sección de los contenidos educativos esta bastante amplio. Si lo entiendo bien en Rwanda habÃan requisitos de certificación segun un estandard educativo pero no veo nada de esto en esta licitación uruguaya. En todo caso será interesante ver los resultados de este proceso... :-) Saludos, Christoph -- Christoph Derndorfer co-editor, olpcnews url:

However I'm available for bouncing off ideas and reviewing drafts or whatnot if someone such as Stephen takes the lead here. Cheers, Christoph If not, can someone give me the summary?

[IAEP] [butialo] new activity for programming and robotic learning
Hi to everyone. There's a new activity, I hope that most of you will enjoy, it's called Butialo (http://activities.sugarlabs.org/en-US/sugar/addon/4457) Butialo is a IDE based on PyPy that allows programming the Butiá robot (http://www.fing.edu.uy/inco/proyectos/butia/) with Lua. Lua is a very fast, powerfull and easy to use language. The IDE provides autodetection of the configuration of your Butia robot, and provides snippets of code showing how to read sensors and do stuff. It also could be used without a Butiá robot for a Lua programing IDE. More info at http://www.fing.edu.uy/inco/proyectos/butia/mediawiki/index.php/Butialo Best regards -- /\ndrés ___ IAEP -- It's An Education Project (not a laptop project!)
