The project was successful, insofar as Ubuntu 10.10 had a decent, mostly-working Sugar stack. Unfortunately, Mozilla was changing the way they provide support for xulrunner, so we weren't able to have a functional Browse <http://activities.sugarlabs.org/en-US/sugar/addon/4024> since the webkit-based Sugar browser was very immature. Basically, Activity Central moved on, and the developers who would have been candidates for joining the Sugar packageset uploaders moved on to other projects. The Debian OLPC team <http://alioth.debian.org/projects/debian-olpc/> still maintains Sugar, but under significantly reduced staffing. -- Luke Faraone;; Debian & Ubuntu Developer; Sugar Labs; GMU 2014 lfaraone on irc.[freenode,oftc].net -- https://luke.wf/ohhello PGP fprint: 5189 2A7D 16D0 49BB 046B DC77 9732 5DD8 F9FD D506
