Hello Sugarians,
I'd like to introduce yet another list for the Italian
Sugar community:

We also have a IRC channel #sugar-it for local-scope topics.
Please, keep global communication on #sugar to avoid fragmentation.

There are three separate topics woven into one in your plan:
(1) Completing the translations for 0.84. It seems you have a handle on that.
(2) Getting the translations packaged into a Sugar on a Stick image. I
think Sebastian can help with that once the translations are pushed to
git.
(3) Getting

We work with schools in developing immersive environments for

I have started a thread for each individual ml; systems, devel, and
marketing to collect ideas about what went right and what we can learn
from the SoaS - Strawberry release.
A debrief is not necessary about finding solutions, it is more like a

I am working on a new Activity that will connect to the Internet
Archive and act as a sort of electronic card catalog. It will be
similar to the offline catalog browsing feature of Read Etexts, but
will have much more information about the books, including language
and a free form description.
It looks like converting an SVG to a GIF is not as simple as I thought
it was. The GIF was no good. The SVG should be OK.
Thanks for your patience.

Yes generating a raster image from vector always leaves room for disappointment
I use imagemagick for that, e.g.

Fred,
Your points are the same ones I had. There is no animation in the
icon, though. Not sure what you're seeing.
Interesting.. The .svg file opened in Ubuntu9.04 and showed a box being
constructed from the base up.
First off it went well. The teacher's loved Sugar, saw a lot of
possibilities and are motivated to help us go forward. People talked with me
about it the entire conference.
That said, I learned a lot of lessons and there are things I would do
differently.

Absolutely spot on. And I would add, it is too overwhelming to give a
lecture and let them explore Sugar at the same time...

Fred,
The problem with books on a shelf is that Aleksey is already using
that image for his Library Activity and I think it is more fitting for
that because he is creating a sort of electronic bookshelf, whereas
I'm creating a card catalog.
I found that when I tried to use my icon with the

to get Sugar working on my machine. The Orientation piece, like Caroline
