The basics (sugar, sugar-base, sugar-toolkit, sugar-presence-services  
and sugar-artwork) are now running on the beagleboard:

http://www.angstrom-distribution.org/sugar-running-?ngstr?m

To build it using OE: 'bitbake sugar'
To install it in angstrom*: 'opkg install sugar'

The Glucose pack is missing sugar-datastore (needs a lot of python  
modules that aren't in OE yet), etoys (haven't looked at that yet) and  
journal (haven't looked at that either).
The Fructose pack is completely missing in OE.

The remaining tasks for people wanting to work on this are:

1) add OE recipes for needed python-modules
2) add OE recipes for remaining Glucose items
3) add OE recipes for Fructose items
4) build it
5) install resulting packages and run them, see them crash due to  
missing python modules, goto 1
6) make screenshots :)

regards,

Koen
