[Sugar-devel] Project Update

[Chihurumnaya Ibiam]

Thanks for the update Jui, I think you should release a python2 version of
PyCut with the necessary fixes before releasing a python3 version.

Yes a doc on display resolution related issues will be very helpful, I
agree changing variable names from Spanish  to English will be helpful for
non Spanish speakers.

Thanks for your work so far, I look forward to you releasing the activities
that need to be released.
