Welcome.

Thanks for your offer.  If you haven't seen it already, you will find
my getting started guide in your spam folder.  You can also find it at

https://github.com/sugarlabs/sugar-docs/blob/master/src/sugar-labs-developer-howto.txt

You can find our guide to contributing at
https://github.com/sugarlabs/sugar-docs/blob/master/src/contributing.md

You can find our guide to setting up a development environment at
https://github.com/sugarlabs/sugar/blob/master/docs/development-environment.md

(Given your wish to port activities from Python 2 to Python 3, the
lowest cost development environment is a virtual machine instance of
Sugar Live Build installed on a virtual disk.  Only Sugar Live Build
supports both versions of Python at once now that Linux distributions
have dropped Python 2.  You would find it most efficient to use an SSH
server on the instance, and use your regular development environment
as an SSH client.  Using SSH in this way minimises the edit and test
cycle.)

You can find our Python 3 Porting Guide at
https://github.com/sugarlabs/sugar-docs/blob/master/src/python-porting-guide.md
