Hola,
I'm echoing on Walter's imperative to keep thinking about where Sugar
should be headed. This is something that is always on the back of my mind
yet I find difficulty in articulating a vision with a plan to get there.
Still, this video I watched today reinforced some of my thoughts with
important questions.

The last bit of it seems to be speaking directly at Sugarlabs:
*I think it's time to tie things back to that central question:*
*How do we want our tools to shape us?*
*What patterns do we want to emulate in order to draw ourselves closer to
our ideal state?*
*We are utterly steeped in the affordances designed by others. Why did they
design them in that way? What were they thinking about? Were they thinking
deeply at all?*
*Or is the design we live with today just the best they could do under a
deadline? Were they just trying to survive as a copy machine company in the
digital age?*
*How does that relate to our goals—to our vision?*
*Our conceptual maps are filled with lines drawn by others.* *Why did they
draw them there?*
I'm cross-posting to Sugar-devel and IAEP for any discussions that may
emerge both technical and educational.
