They are going to activities.sl.o from the main sugarlabs.org page,
which opens it in a new window, which in 0.84 is a popup window.

We have fixed it already in 0.85 by using tabs, but the marketing team
wants to do something else in the site before fixing it. CC'ing the
marketing list.

I think it's very unfortunate that Sugar users have such a bad
experience when navigating to our site.
