Ideas

School Server

  • Desing of the admin interface

Core Software

Print Support

Print support in Sugar would be useful in many scenarios. The ideal project deliverables would include

  • Integration of a printing infrastructure (CUPS ??) into the XO-1 software images
  • Modification of Sugar Control Panel to set up the printer (add/select default printer?)
  • Modification of at least one activity (Write ?) to support printing

Projects

  • Sugar Factory, an automated method for Sugarizing non-Python applications. Albert Cahalan has some of this working now.
  • Document reader with annotation capability
  • Feed generated data from simulations or the software synthesizer into the Measure activity.
  • More generally, support snap-together programming of XO activities in the manner that Turtle Art and Etoys provide internally.
