[Sugar-devel] 0sugar status report
Hi all, I've finally managed to make some progress in 0sugar. == Activities == Activities that are ready to try, they carry all 0sugar dependencies but later updarting process will be like for regular 0install packages: http://people.sugarlabs.org/~alsroot/tmp/CartoonBuilder-9.xo http://git.sugarlabs.org/projects/cartoon-builder uses toolkit/python dependency to use new toolbars on 0.82+ http://people.sugarlabs.org/~alsroot/tmp/Speak-12.xo http://git.sugarlabs.org/projects/speak uses toolkit/python dependency to use new toolbars on 0.82+ gst-plugins-espeak to not run execute espeak command(thus speed up activity) on XO-1 http://people.sugarlabs.org/~alsroot/tmp/GComprisGeography-13.xo this is just a sugar wrapper around 0install feed with new sugarized GCompris-9's geography activity http://services.sugarlabs.org/gcompris/geography.xml Changes in activity developers workflow after adding services is described here http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Documentation_Team/Services/Activity_Developers_Guide == Services == There are several examples of services: http://git.sugarlabs.org/projects/0sugar-packages just a list of native packages that could be used as dependencies in sugar services (but there are several services with that 0install binaries, like vala, libgee and some packages that were built to run GC-9 on XO-1). http://git.sugarlabs.org/projects/toolkit vala based sugar-toolkit replacement which was started for GC needs but for now only toolkit/python is useful which contains new design toolbars(pure python) for 0.82+ sugars. http://git.sugarlabs.org/projects/gst-plugins-espeak (0.3 branch) C based project which is accessible from service feed http://git.sugarlabs.org/projects/gcompris (gcomprixogoo-sugar branch) project with huge service spec file, for 100+ sub services http://services.sugarlabs.org/gcompris/#Siblings The initial info about packaging sugar services http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Documentation_Team/Services/Service_Developers_Guide -- Aleksey ___ Sugar-devel mailing list Sugar-devel@lists.sugarlabs.org http://lists.sugarlabs.org/listinfo/sugar-devel
[Sugar-devel] state of feature patches
Hi, in the review queue we currently have the following patches that provide enhancements, as opposed to fixing bugs: http://dev.sugarlabs.org/ticket/1458 - Write - export as PDF This one liner should go in, brings good functionality with little risk. http://dev.sugarlabs.org/ticket/1592 - enhanced color selector Patch affects only the color selector, it's not big, but couldn't try it because have not been able to find the corresponding patch for sugar-toolkit. How bad do we want this in 0.88.0? http://dev.sugarlabs.org/ticket/1659 - replace Xephyr with VNC I think Sascha has made that the server is killed when the viewer is closed, but the patch in trac doesn't seem to have been updated. I think this is more of an invasive bugfix than a feature or enhancement. http://dev.sugarlabs.org/ticket/1680 - sugar-base: add sugar.dispatch.DbusSignal http://dev.sugarlabs.org/ticket/1681 - use sugar.dispatch.DbusSignal in sugar.datastore.datastore I'm not sure why we need this. http://dev.sugarlabs.org/ticket/1630 - Support for mobile broadband provider database Not too invasive, should affect only to the 3G feature. Patch not too big, I don't know how much needed is this in the field. Comments, corrections, etc?

[Sugar-devel] Release policy and upgrades of sugar on laptops
Hi I have the follow question. We are currently doing translation for THE language pap. We are working hard to get THE job done for THE NeXT release of sugar. At THE Same time we are going to place an order of olpc laptops which shiuld be delivered by THE end of february or march. I have been told that the XO 1.5 will be delivered. Question: if version 0.84 is shipped with these laptops, is it possible to upgrade the XO to the version of the next release of April? Can someone tell me how this is done or where to get this information? Question 2: If we really deliver our translations on February 28, will our translations really be incorporated with the next release of April? What's the current status of development? Is the software development on schedule? Question 3: we might still be translating on etoys (big file). Is it possible to deliver after march 1st?

Re: [Sugar-devel] Release policy and upgrades of sugar on laptops
Hi Urso, Question: if version 0.84 is shipped with these laptops, is it possible to upgrade the XO to the version of the next release of April? Can someone tell me how this is done or where to get this information? There's some confusion between XO releases and Sugar releases here. Sugar releases happen every six months, and XO (OLPC OS) releases happen less often -- they aren't strictly time-based, but major releases have happened roughly once a year, and minor bugfix releases happen as they're needed. So, it's not the case that Sugar releases are incorporated into OLPC releases immediately. (In fact, for the XO-1.5 we chose to use Sugar 0.84 even though Sugar 0.86 had been released before our final release happened, because we wanted a Sugar release that had seen more time for bugfixes.) You should talk with OLPC directly about how to handle your particular situation, but I expect that you'll need to update the machines with your translations when they arrive; we can give you some pointers on how to do that. - Chris. -- Chris Ball c...@laptop.org One Laptop Per Child ___ Sugar-devel mailing list Sugar-devel@lists.sugarlabs.org http://lists.sugarlabs.org/listinfo/sugar-devel
Re: [Sugar-devel] Release policy and upgrades of sugar on laptops
I would like to simulate the XO-1.5 on my XO-1, to see how my activities perform on the XO-1.5. (I'm particularly interested in how the fonts display.) What are my options?
