would be very appropriate and useful. I would welcome them.</FONT></DIV>

translation (I could help with details of intent); my role would be to check and

the activities run as intended.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>I'm well aware that my "single-language-only"
approach is probably unique to the world of Sugar; I would have liked
to envisage a practical, feasible alternative that might "reach more
children." I'd also appreciate feedback from developers, users, whomever who
have looked at the activities (such as SamplePlay or FileMix). To date, I've
received very little - no doubt at least partly because the activities are
rather complex and clearly directed at older children.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV></DIV></BLOCKQUOTE></DIV><BR>While I can appreciate the care
you put into the aesthetics of your design, it is reasonably safe to say that
more than half of all Sugar users speak Spanish (through the large XO
deployments in South and Central America). I would at least consider
generating a Spanish language version to double your potential
user-base.<BR><BR>cjl<BR></BLOCKQUOTE></BODY></HTML>
