I have autism and seizure<br> disorder and have contributed prior work to Sugar Labs, including<br> changes to the "About My Computer" configuration panel to render the<br> GNU GPL in a monospace font (because it is a plain text file with a<br> 79-character margin).<br> <br> According to Red Hat's Brand Standards, Mohandas Gandhi said "First<br> they ignore you. Then they laugh at you. Then they fight you. Then you<br> win." (Though no evidence was found that Gandhi actually said this.)<br> This quote inspired Red Hat's journey as a company, from the<br> open-source outlier in a Windows 98 world to the provider of<br> technology serving as the backbone of many of today's Web sites.<br> <br> What if we said the same thing about the journey of Sugar Labs? What<br> if Sugar Labs broke through a world of American educational computing<br> now dominated by Chrome OS?<br> <br> I believe the best way that Sugar Labs can do so is to market its<br> software to original equipment manufacturers (OEMs). By doing so, the<br> Sugar Learning Platform can achieve a wider market share in<br> more-developed countries and be accessible to more students, teachers,<br> and parents.<br> <br> In order to aid with doing so, I am hereby releasing under the GNU<br> General Public License, version 3 (or any later version), a script<br> (called "Sugar Factory") which will install and configure the Sugar<br> Learning Platform to run on any desktop, laptop, notebook, or tablet<br> computer in the process of manufacturing or preparation for secondhand<br> sale. This script uses a hard-coded partitioning scheme where all<br> files reside in the root partition--except, for UEFI-compliant<br> systems, a 512-megabyte EFI System Partition will be created at the<br> beginning of the disk and mounted at /boot/efi. (GPT partitioning is<br> not supported.)<br> <br> Original equipment manufacturers that use this script may either flash<br> the operating system (which is a modified version of Sugar on a Stick)<br> directly to each device, or create an intermediate image and flash<br> that (which is a /lot/ faster). Also, they may make whatever<br> modifications they desire (or none at all) to the finished operating<br> system, and may choose to use the Sugar, Python Powered, and/or Fedora<br> Remix logos on the packaging and/or other promotional materials of<br> products that contain it.<br> <br> I have also attached the license and the output from my last test run<br> of this script (which was successful).<br> <br> Sincerely,<br> <br> Ryan Cunningham<br> <br>______________________________<wbr>_________________<br> SoaS mailing list<br> <a href="mailto:SoaS@lists.sugarlabs.org">SoaS@lists.sugarlabs.org</a><br> <a href="http://lists.sugarlabs.org/listinfo/soas" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">http://lists.sugarlabs.org/<wbr>listinfo/soas</a><br> <br></blockquote></div><br><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> </div> </div></blockquote><blockquote type="cite"><div><span>_______________________________________________</span><br><span>IAEP -- It's An Education Project (not a laptop project!)</span><br><span><a href="mailto:IAEP@lists.sugarlabs.org">IAEP@lists.sugarlabs.org</a></span><br><span><a href="http://lists.sugarlabs.org/listinfo/iaep">http://lists.sugarlabs.org/listinfo/iaep</a></span></div></blockquote></body></html>
