Nice to have so many people wanting to be involved in mentoring, but you must be involved in Sugar Labs. Please use and test Music Blocks, Sugarizer, and Sugar. Please post about your tests; what worked well, what didn't work, and if you can use GitHub create issues. Where you have selected

Hello Dipansh, Thanks for reaching out and showing your interest. Can you list exactly which projects you contributed to or are interested in Sugar Labs? Going through your GitHub profile, since you are experienced in JS, you can fit in with the Sugarizer team. Being a mentor for this years GCI

There is also matrix.org, which is FOSS AFAIK and seems to let one integrate irc with other channels people may prefer. I suggest a few passionate community members give some of these systems a test-drive and then convince us old-timers that we ought to learn some new tricks. -walter On Tue, Jan

In spite of failures to win status with GSOC, I thought Sugar Labs might be interested in Google Code In. (GCI) It is possible that prior GSOC success is a criterion for entry. After all working with kids is supposed to be what we are all about.

I was talking with Ignacio, a kid from Uruguay that hangs on #sugar and told him to sign in Code-In. He is excited, but I still wonder if OLPC/SugarLabs would be joining this effort. Right how he is working with Flavio D. on doing some ports to GTK3. On 10/14/12, Chris Leonard
