[Sugar-devel] Sugar Outreach Plans 2019 - PyCon Cleveland

[Vipul Gupta]

Hello folks,
At the end of 2018, we started the Outreach works for Sugar Labs. At first,
we thought of sharing several accomplishments throughout Google Code-In to
keep the people in the loop on various social media platforms, as well as
sharing experiences of Google Summer of Code students and their projects
held in 2018 for a positive impact.

We thought we can go bigger and with that thought in mind represent Sugar
Labs on larger platforms in front of communities. I proposed PyCon to be a
great choice for the same. Considering OLPC represented XO laptops being
part of PyCon 2008 (An article by Tony
<http://www.olpcnews.com/use_cases/technology/pycon_2008_and_olpc.html>)
Hence, we submitted a proposal for talks about Sugar Labs in the Education
Summit of PyCon Cleveland 2019, and I am very happy to inform that we have
in fact been selected. It's a great accomplishment for us all.

Samson would be representing our community at PyCon Cleveland. I,
unfortunately, due to my university exams won't be able to go. As much as I
loved drafting the proposal with Samson and be would like to meet and talk
about Sugar Labs, I am happy that Samson has a chance to be at PyCon and
will do great. We are still raw in your efforts and have lots to improve.
Would love to have more suggestions on things we should be doing, and also
planning to hold workshops regarding Sugar in many countries in the near
future.

Thanks,

Cordially,
Vipul Gupta
