My idea/suggestion (and reason behind the [[Sugar development]] page) was that the concept of Sugar is too novel for many people (not just developers) and that a good 'distribution hall' could be set up to point to the Guidelines, the development, the 'users manual', the rationale, etc... focusing only on developers may put off people trying to find about 'what is so new about it' and similar... --[[User:Xavi|Xavi]] 08:56, 6 February 2007 (EST)

The approach I'm using it to keep only entry points on the main page. User stuff will go either in the About on section or in a specific one (on the main page). I prefer to not split user/developer in two different pages because using and contributing to the project are interrelated activities. --marco

Hi! I've tried to come up with a [[Template:Sandbox|template]] (currently in the sandbox) that could help document the API. It's still too clunky, and have my doubts about its practical aspects, but it could be a starting point... and I would appreciate some feedback. (btw, 'forget it' ''is'' a valid comment ;) --[[User:Xavi|Xavi]] 19:50, 27 April 2007 (EDT)

Hey-

Is there a reason the title of SugarDemo2 isn't Sugar demo 2 Is it alright to move it?

Thanks! --Aburton 16:42, 24 June 2006 (EDT)

That make sense. It would be good to also rename SugarDemo1 and SugarDesignReview2.

When you make pages, Keep in mind that MediaWiki doesn't use CamelCase. You can format the titles "Sugar design review x" instead of "SugarDesignReviewX"--Aburton 16:14, 25 June 2006 (EDT)

Sugar main page

Hi! I noticed you're uphauling Sugar's 'main' page... I had been thinking about it too (btw, I was the one who inserted Sugar development link).

About the Graphics API

Hi! I've tried to come up with a template (currently in the sandbox) that could help document the API. It's still too clunky, and have my doubts about its practical aspects, but it could be a starting point... and I would appreciate some feedback.
