[Sugar-devel] [Announcement] Sugarizer v0.8 is available for your device

[Lionel Laské]

Thanks all.

@Walter, PR is the best way.
More precisely: clone Sugarizer, replace Turtle Blocks code by the new one,
if possible test on all browsers (Chrome, Firefox, Safari, EDGE) to ensure
portability on all devices, then PR.

     Lionel.
