Actually, no, it won't be an issue, because those people will ignore
the collaboration features; they are very difficult to discover, and
they won't have been prepared to expect them.  They will assume that
Browse and web sites give them all the collaboration functionality
they need.

The only activity on the release page that really requires
collaboration to work is the Chat activity.  All the others can be
used alone.

So rather than reflecting badly on Sugar, such people will blame Chat
for not working.

Not sure which version but in the past I did have some fun linking up XO-1 and 
SOAS for varied shared activities. Reliability was good enough at times.

Indeed this will be an issue if we give the release web a new face and people

Thanks Samuel.

So there is effort needed to port Sugar to the versions of Telepathy
in use in Fedora and whatever other distributions are used.

I'm in favour of that.

This keeps coming up.

I believe that due to changes in telepathy, collaboration (at least for
Jabber) has not worked for the past few Fedora releases.

Given collaboration is supposed to be one of the core features of Sugar,
this makes it hard to promote.

So if you do not blank it out, but leave it as it is, and allow it to
connect to jabber.sugarlabs.org, everything works fine?

(When I do that on other than SOAS, there are many icons on
neighbourhood view.  I'm able to invite the other non-XO to chat, and
it works fine.)

If using jabber.sugarlabs.org works fine on SOAS, then this is not so
severe a problem.

It has the jabber.sugalabs.org and I have blank it out first for my testing.

I registered the two SOAS-22 with the schoolserver. Both shows in the 
neighbourhood BUT a shared activity will not show (it showed when it is not 
registered befroe) in the neighbourhood. I use 2 registered XO and the shared 
activities will show. The SOAS can join but will not work as in my previous

Yeah, that one doesn't match.  What I'm after are detailed problem
descriptions; not a "it doesn't work, why don't you test it to prove
me wrong", but rather what was tried, what the result was, and what
the expectation was.

One problem description for each of the three connection methods; with
Jabber, without Jabber but with access point, and with ad-hoc.

Thanks.  (This is worrying.  Collaboration is so fundamental and yet it
has stayed broken for so long?)

I don't think this relates to 0.98, because 0.98 works fine on other
Fedora systems such as XO laptops.  But that gives us a date range.

Thomas, check your notes; did it work with a Fedora 18 SOAS?

I tested the 2 SOAS-22 via a connection to the schoolserver AP. Collaboration  
works normally between XOs-1 running 13.2.4.

In Adhoc network connection I could not see the other person in neighbourhood 
view. 

I think collaboration work on SOAS-17 and below as I alway try to see if the 
SOAS would work with XOs by testing maze, write, etc.

What you describe is interprocess communication.

Sugar uses several methods for communication with system daemons.

The most frequently coded is D-Bus.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/D-Bus

Other methods in Python are
https://docs.python.org/2/library/ipc.html

You can use files, as Gonzalo says, but try to place them in a path
that does not cause writes to disk; e.g. /tmp ... otherwise sometimes
the kernel will reschedule the process that is writing, and this can
slow performance.

My preference for your scenario is signals:

1.  Notificator calls os.getpid and writes to /tmp/notificator.pid

2.  Notificator calls signal.signal to request a callback on SIGUSR1,

3.  Daemon reads /tmp/notificator.pid and calls os.kill(pid, SIGUSR1),
kill(1), or kill(3) to send signal.

An example here:
http://dev.laptop.org/git/projects/runin/tree/runin-gtk

Signals become more complex if the communication is complex, and there
are a limited number of different signals.  That's when I would
suggest D-Bus.

We need to stop somewhere and say "Yes, this is good enough" and I
really don't have the time to deal with more updates. It's easy to
keep changing the room around when you don't have to do the work.

Feel free to suggest changes, but don't be offended if they don't happen :)

There were some Activities that were being suggested that we don't
even have packaged in Fedora eg here is Develop, I'd never even heard
of that. Ultimately the people making suggestions should actually
download and see what is there on what we ship :-)

Re: [Sugar-devel] [IAEP] [Marketing] New Fedora Spins Site

2015-05-20 Thread Sean DALY
Thanks Peter, I was watching that too.

If I understand correctly switching/changing the sections or adding an
Activity is beyond tweaks? while text changes are tweaks.

I'm quite happy with it, even though there are lots of changes we suggested
which aren't in.

I feel the only tweak still to make is to add under the Journal:
The Journal provides an interface into a datastore of everything you've
created in Sugar. Bookmarking and commenting tools integrate with the
Journal to allow parents and teachers to review a child's learning progress.

The Journal is central to the Sugar experience and we rightly call it out
in the Intro, but I feel the description under it is too brief.

Thanks again for making all this happen.

Sean

Re: [Sugar-devel] Communication between two Activities

2015-05-20 Thread Gonzalo Odiard
The notificator can write the notification to a file,
and the activity can use Gio.FileMonitor to know when the file was updated.

Just for curiosity, why not use the Sugar notifications?

Re: [Sugar-devel] Communication between two Activities

2015-05-20 Thread Gustavo Duarte
Hi Gonzalo,

Sure, I'll try explain the user case.

Notificator: There is a Sugar Activity who shows Notification messages
for the kid.

Daemon: There is an script running on cron, who get new notification
from a Server.

I need communicate the Daemon with the Notificator, so when Daemon
receive a new notification from Server, it'll send a signal to
Notificator.

Notificator when receive the signal, should refresh a widget.


I know a way to do that, using system signals, but i wonder if Sugar
has another way to achieve that.

Thanks.

Right the new updated content is live on staging. Please shift+reload

Re: [Sugar-devel] Communication between two Activities

2015-05-20 Thread Gonzalo Odiard
Hi Gustavo,
I think would help if you explain the specific use case.
The activity who will receive the message is a specific activity,
and you will send it from a script or service?
Can the activity just monitor a file or something like that?

Re: [Sugar-devel] Communication between two Activities

2015-05-20 Thread Gustavo Duarte
Walter,

There are two different activities, and the communication could be asynchronous.

I not sure, if the the  comment bellow, can confuse you, if yes,
please forget that.

The process who send the message, could be  just a script, isn't
needed it be an Activity.


Thanks.

Re: [Sugar-devel] Sugar-devel Digest, Vol 79, Issue 51

2015-05-20 Thread Tony Anderson

Hi, Sam

As part of GSOC, I am mentoring the Interactive Javascript Project and 
have four candidates for the unfunded Web Confusion project who have 
volunteered to continue in support of the community. Since the two 
projects are closely related and since there are five people involved 
plus me, I have had the group set up to allow the project participants 
to communicate. I don't think this level of detail is appropriate for a 
general list. Of course, anyone who wants to get involved as mentor or 
contributor is welcome to join.

Hello,


It is great to see more people becoming engaged with Sugar!

I'm not sure what this google group is, however, we already have many
mailing lists [1].  Please consider using an existing mailing list as we
should not aim for a fragmented community.

Thanks,
Sam

Re: [Sugar-devel] Communication between two Activities

2015-05-20 Thread Walter Bender
Gustavo,

Are they two instances of the same activity or two different activities? Is
the communication synchronous or asynchronous?

Thanks, Gonzalo, is good advice.

My apologies to the other contributors, Sam, Walter and Sean for
clouding their perfectly useful work.

The text that I have called the "Walter/Sam contribution" is on this
thread.

Sean's "improved" text reads:

#-#

Sugar on a Stick is a Fedora-based operating system featuring the
award-winning Sugar Learning Platform and designed to fit on an ordinary
USB thumbdrive ("stick").

Sugar sets aside the traditional "office-desktop" metaphor, presenting a
child-friendly simple graphical environment. Sugar automatically saves
the child's progress to a "Journal" on your stick, so teachers and
parents can easily pull up "all collaborative web browsing sessions done
in the past week" or "papers written with Daniel and Sarah in the last
24 hours" with a simple query rather than memorizing complex file/folder
structures. Applications in Sugar are known as Activities, some of which
are described below.

It is now deployable for the cost of a stick rather than a laptop;
students can take their Sugar on a Stick thumbdrive to any machine - at
school, at home, at a library or community center - and boot their
customized computing environment without touching the host machine's
hard disk or existing system at all.

#-#

I feel that this is the limit of my ability to achieve consensus.

I have a plain text copy of the above two elements plus Sean's
proof_reading_corrections, if it is required.

Can we have pure plain text, the web team deals with formatting.

I need to be able to provide it in pure text, I don't have time to
strip out html. Is it really that hard to provide an inline in email
pure text output?

I have until the end of today to provide a decent update else it goes out as is.

 No, I drop all attachments from mailing lists unless they are text
 patches, they're generally just spam or viruses.

 In plain text inline emails please.

 I want ONE update. I don't have the time to merge them. I've already
 wasted a lot of time I really don't have on this!
