The core focus of the Sig is to be an upstream for the the deployment releases.
My guess is that while the project is not identical to either Sugar on a Stick, or Martin's work on making the sugar on a Stick run on the XO, we will have a very significant code overlap. I am planning on starting from Steven M. Parrish's F11 on XO1.5 tree and seeing what happens. david On Fri, Oct 2, 2009 at 5:04 PM, Sebastian Dziallas <sebast...@when.com> wrote: > David Farning wrote: >> >> As promised, we have started work on the XO operating system SIG at >> Sugar Labs.
