Thanks to Puno pilot, there is a chance to setup procedure to cover full Sugar deployment cycle basing on efforts driven by community members. So, the subject of the original email was formed as a Platform Team project within the Sugar Labs, i.e., it is community driven project that will be a basis for downstream Sugar distribution (Hexoquinasa) to use in Puno.
As a result, it will be possible to effectively reuse this experience to create any other community based Sugar deployment projects. The home page for new project: http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Platform_Team/Harmonic_Distribution The goals in short: * The possibility to launch Base Software in heterogeneous software and hardware environments. * Using Base Software, provide access to various Content (Sugar activities, artifacts created by Sugar activities, books, etc.) created within the Sugar community. * Using Base Software, provide collaborative functionality to support Social activity around the Content. * Instruments and workflows to adapt Content and Base Software to specific needs that Sugar Deployment might face, including extreme ones like off-line environments and restricting hardware. For more detailed description, see Declaration of purpose[2]. It is not exactly new project, just an effort to rehash several ongoing projects using system approach, such as: * Sweets Distribution[3], as 3rd party repository for supported platforms * Sugar Network[4], as a content sharing environment * [Sugar] Server Kit[5] components to form school server * Sweets[6], as a PMS to support activities on top of native PMS and work with issues like dependencies and building from sources * OBS patch[7], to build Sucrose, Server Kit packages and binary based activities on all supported platforms The roadmap[8] is synchronized with Puno pilot (which is a bit delayed) and until June, SHD should be ready to start pilot. The current TODO[9], assumes releasing v0.1 at the end of the March with Sucrose repos (like Sweets Distribution) to try initial implementation of Sugar Network.
