[Sugar-devel] Yet another project to port Sugar to Android ?

[Christoph Derndorfer]

I'm confused. To the best of my knowledge Sugar doesn't run on Android
(yet?) and the focus of the HTML 5 work was to enable Activities written in
HTML 5 to run on Sugar (and not to port Sugar to run on an HTML platform
such as a browser). So we really only have Sugar on Linux.

Or am I missing something?

Thanks,
Christoph
