3. GaiaBB: Proposal for shared community software - Victoria, Australia<br>
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://rt.laptop.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=48637">http://rt.laptop.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=48637</a><br>

<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Projects">http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Projects</a> ]<br>
<br>
Requests 2 XO's over 8 months<br>
<br>
Project Objectives:<br>
I would like make a proposal to re-purpose my general purpose forum <br>
software (GaiaBB) to be XO community specific, using a peer to peer <br>
replication to allow kids to create and contribute to their own
easily <br>
managed forums maintained on their laptops with no central server.<br>
<br>
Typically, forum software requires a database backend, but is
actually <br>
very small footprint as long as you don't allow image attachments. <br>
Allowing peer to peer replication of the data between participants <br>
would allow them to grab updates to the forum when they're in range <br>
say in school, and answer / reply to threads when off radio, say at <br>
home.<br>

<br>
Requests 2 XO's over 6 months<br>
<br>
Project Objectives:<br>
I have developed the following Activities in Spanish:<br>
ActivityDomino <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://activities.sugarlabs.org/es-ES/sugar/addon/4212">http://activities.sugarlabs.org/es-ES/sugar/addon/4212</a><br>

I am developing an activity to create comics, FotoToon.<br>
(git <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://git.sugarlabs.org/projects/fototoon/">http://git.sugarlabs.org/projects/fototoon/</a> ). <br>
<br>
* I think FotoToontil can be very useful for developing expression,
analysis of problems, and <br>
co-operative teamwork.<br>
The Activities already developed can be found in use, but I would
like to complete them and <br>
to be able to implement shared use between various types of
computers.<br>
* In addition, in Foto Toon I need to test how to take images from
the Journal, and in my <br>
current development environment (I am writing in Fedora 11 on my
machine) I cannot do it.<br>
* In addition to these activities, I am participating actively in
"Sugar Days Argentina" <br>
<a class="moz-txt-link-rfc2396E" href="http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/SugarDaysArgentina"><http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/SugarDaysArgentina></a> That we are
doing in our country with <br>
the objective of creating a community of developers and teachers
around the OLPC project <br>
and Sugar and the larger goal of realizing its implementation in our
country.<br>
* I would also like to develop an Activity for the creation of
stop-motion animations (using <br>
sequences of photos) that will also permit the taking of sequences
of photos for detecting <br>
differences (in movement and time between the photos) that will
permit calculating velocity <br>
or acceleration.<br>

Requests 2 XO's over 6-12 months<br>
<br>
Project Objectives:<br>
The aim of this project is to demonstrate the<br>
usefulness of a DIY attitude combined with the capabilities of modern<br>
technology that both meets creative desires and maintains a balance<br>
and strong connection with humanity and nature. It is an expose, a<br>
book, of a person who is just like you, me, or anyone else, with<br>
thoughts and feelings and troubles and joys. Only when a person
shines<br>
the brightest are they the most visible to naked eye.</div>
