OLPC Python Environment
Application developers on the OLPC will mostly be working with Python, the GTK GUI and the Gecko HTML engine. This combination is called Sugar.
This has been documented elsewhere on blogs and news sites such as this: http://arstechnica.com/news.ars/post/20060524-6903.html
Some nice screenshots can be found here: http://www.eschoolnews.com/eti/2006/05/001414.php
If you are a developer with a machine running Fedora Core, then you can download the Sugar environment from here http://hg.fedoraproject.org/hg/olpc/applications/sugar--devel
