The homepage says:
Sugar is both a desktop and a collection of Activities.

This means something to GNU/Linux developers, but is meaningless to a
teacher. It directly contradicts what the old site said on the homepage:
Sugar offers an alternative to traditional “office-desktop” software.

And, on the second page of the site:
Sugar sets aside the traditional “office-desktop” metaphor and, through its
Activities, engages even the youngest learners in the use of computation as
a powerful “thing to think with.”
