@Walter and @Gonzalo, thank for your encouragement !
> Family tree construction is a fairly common project in some school settings (along with other family history projects, e.g. interview your grandparents >about what life was like when they were your age, etc.) so I think that this is a wonderful idea for a Sugar Activity. @Chris, youre right. Indeed, the idea of this activity come from Bastien Guerry when it worked with teachers to prepare the first Haïti deployment. > I may take a shot at entering my own family geneology (which has been traced back to the mid-1600's on my mother's side.) as a test case :-) Cant wait to see that :-) In my initial brainstorm I thought to support the standard GEDCOM format. However, I want to keep the activity very simple, not to compete with existing genealogic software. > One small note about the upload to ASLO, I think something was not configured correctly. Youre right, I miss something. Thanks @Gonzalo to fix it. > As you seek to refine Roots in later versions, I would very much appreciate it if you would consider working on internationalization Its already the case. The activity is wrote in English but have already a localization file in French. So, there is a POT file and a first fr.po file here: http://git.sugarlabs.org/roots/master/trees/master/po One more thing: its the first activity I develop with Python/PyGTK and I must say that its really a pleasure to do it. Its great to see how most things are easy to do in Sugar and how we could benefit from the work done on existing activity (Labyrinth, A toi de jouer, Paint, Memory for me - to name a few). Note also than Im a Windows developer. So I wrote a Sugar dummy library to allow developing/debugging the activity on PyGTK Windows (without Sugar ). Its a very partial work but It could interest some other Windows developers (http://git.sugarlabs.org/roots/master/blobs/master/sugardummy.py). Lionel.
