0.88 is the latest version of Sugar, consisting of Glucose, the base system environment; and Fructose, a set of demonstration activities. This new release contains many new features, performance and code improvements, bug fixes, and translations.

Congratulations to all involved!


Sorry to ask - again: Where is the official documented list of contents of Glucose and Fructose for each major release of Sugar?


I fail to locate it at http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/0.88/Notes and the directly referenced http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Taxonomy is too broad.


I would like to check - for each of 0.84, 0.86 and 0.88 - how close to the official compositions we are in Debian currently.

Please do not post the detailed answer in an email response, but refer to the wiki page which is (supposed to) contain this info. :-)

Its not changed for quite some time and can be found here: http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Development_Team/Release/Modules

Thanks.

It seems that page is not exactly what I am looking for, however.

Or let me try throw a couple of trick questions:

Risking getting tripped up...

:-)


 * Do newest release of Browse work on 0.84?

I believe the answer is yes.

Specifically for 0.84 I believe that some activities only supports the "redesigned toolbar", and judging from its Git source branching Browse is one of those.

There might be other issues too, and the issue might have been fixed later on so that the 0.84 branch is no longer used so is a wrong measure for me as distributor to look for.

I have been around long enough to have heard about it when the toolbar was redesigned, so am aware of that particular issue. But others might not - and I would appreciate not having to rely on my own jusgement and code analysis but being able to lookup hard facts published by the upstream project.


 * Is (newest releases of) jukebox and imageviewer part of 0.84?

The maintainers of 0.84 would have to answer this question. They are
doing quite a bit of backporting.

The question here was not if it _works_ with 0.84, but instead if it is considered as _part_ of the "core" Sugar environment. So when you mention backporting efforts, I suspect that we are not talking about the same thing - or perhaps your use of "backporting" is what I would call "deriving".

Sigh... I know that mentioning "core Sugar" might spawn a discussion on its own. :-/


If you do not care about tracking 0.84 any longer then what revision of which wiki page should I go look for latest info on that abandoned release?

0.84 has not been abandoned. There are several teams working on its maintenance and support.

Yeah, that's my impression too. Thanks for reassuring that my big efforts on multi-branched packaging for Debian is not a total waste :-)
