 Good plan.

A transwiki project page on the olpcwiki would be a good idea as well.
Wikis tend to approve when you start a project within them to move material
off, so that discussions such as this one have a history and talkpage within
the wiki.

See [[olpc:OLPC:Transwiki#SugarLabs]]
I recommend moving [any procedural bits of] this thread there.
