[IAEP] Sugar Labs 2017 Budget

[Tony Anderson]

For what it's worth, Sugar 0.110 (OLPC OS 13.2.8) has been installed on 
hundreds of XO laptops, all models in Rwanda. The codebase is reaching 
these
classrooms. I am not sure what you mean by the js codebase, but if you 
mean the sugar web activities. Yes they are available for optional 
installment (along with the other activities in ASLO)
