<br></blockquote></div><br>My comment regarding this vision is that it is more of a mission statement. I like that it focuses on the meta-aspects of Sugar Labs -- what our members can do -- as well as the end product, the Sugar learning platform. But it doesn't convey to me an explicit vision for software, education, children, etc.</div><div class="gmail_extra"><br></div><div class="gmail_extra">regards.</div><div class="gmail_extra"><br></div><div class="gmail_extra">-walter<br clear="all"><div><br></div>-- <br><div class="gmail_signature" data-smartmail="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr"><div><font><font>Walter Bender</font></font><br><font><font>Sugar Labs</font></font></div><div><font><a href="http://www.sugarlabs.org" target="_blank"><font>http://www.sugarlabs.org</font></a></font><br><a href="http://www.sugarlabs.org" target="_blank"><font></font></a><br></div></div></div>
