I wish they would, actually.  Good tools should be shared and reused.
Bernie wants to talk about SugarLabs infrastructure, and Michael wants
to encourage broader use of the tools which he has created.  I think
those talks are entirely appropriate for a joint conference -- and if
you don't, I think you should be talking to Bernie and Michael about
it, not me.  I didn't do any filtering of the proposals sent to devel@
other than prioritizing proposals from people who would be attending
in person.

I think you need to talk to Bernie about this.  I'm not planning the
rest of the week; I was just brought in as a consultant to coordinate
the 'proposals' section.

Setting us artificial "us-vs-them" antagonism between OLPC and
SugarLabs is *not* the way to improve our working together.  In my
opinion.  Both SugarLabs and OLPC are "we".
