[Sugar-devel] Hints for a Sugar dev intro?

[Martin Langhoff]

The Wellington Testers team has been asking me for an intro to
programming Sugar. So far, my strategy was to flee the country, but
that trick's getting old...

So I've been wondering - what materials would you suggest for a
"fast-track into Sugar development" workshop. I am thinking of 2
half-day sessions, one focused on the Sugar stack and the second one
on activity creation. The welly testers get together once a week, for
~4hs -- so that limits the format in this case.

I won't be the best guy to deliver it, but I'll try. I understand the
XO stack fairly well, but I'm not a Sugar dev, so patchy in some
areas.

There's an active python UG in Welly, so maybe they want to be part of it too.

Outcomes
• more devs knowing Sugar stack and activities ==> more patches, more
activities?
• more expert testers...
• resulting materials and sliderware
• video of the session - also freely licensed

Now that I think of it, it'd be great to do it in Spanish, and
circulate it in Uy. Sadly, I don't have a spanish-speaking audience in
Welly.

cheers,
