Hi there. I have asked for space on git for my IDLE fiddling. You'd need an email and an SSH2 key and a subscription to devel@lists.laptop.org to get checkin access, once they respond. Also, here is a message I got recently:

Jameson,
With your interest in the OLPC project, and a CS background, I wonder if I might convince you take on a (very modest) project. Specifically, to assemble the existing pieces of a rudimentary pop3 e-mail client into a Sugar activity. Most of the work has been done, but no one has sat down and made a recent activity that does it.
In total, it is likely not more than a day or two worth of work. There is documentation on the laptop.org wiki along with the Tinymail (http://www.tinymail.org/) site on compiling it for the OLPC. Using the python example UI and the like should make this a sufficiently low-hanging fruit that many people would like to see be plucked.
Interested?

I said I'd look into it, but if you're inspired to, go for it; right now, I'm focusing on my proof-of-concept. Homunq 09:54, 10 August 2007 (EDT)
