Es importante saber y poder emponderar a los chicos, creo que los chicos se sintieron alumnos pasivos y a la hora de emprender se vieron intimidados con el reto.

Hi, +1 I think there are some ways to improve hardware independence. Integrating sugar with a display manager would make it work in many (traditional?) IT situations where you have computers with networked student accounts. Over the ensuing years, we have also made efforts to reach out in other

I've worked with the project for some time, as a developer, teacher, and teacher-trainer. There have been triumphs and setbacks in the past, but I can't escape this observation: when people have a choice, they choose not to use Sugar. For many schools, they have what was donated and there is no c

No worries. My small amount of work on the XO-1 has made improvements, but more is needed. I hope Sugar Labs and community developers can continue to work on these performance problems. If there's anything at OLPC blocking that, please let me know. Samuel's build of 14.1.0 is suitable for devel

I just got started with all of this in 2013, so my relationship with the project is very different from many others on this list. I'm also not a programmer. So this is just my perspective as a coordinator with schools using XOs in Haiti. I'm going to tackle the below item-by-item; looking forward

I am not necessarily discounting XOs; but several community members have said in the past they were not upgrading to the latest Sugar/OLPC OS versions. This is because newer versions tend to need more resources and run slowly on older XO models. XOs may always be part of the community; but they a
