Hi, <br>
<br>
There is certainly no lack of things to do. As you may be aware, a
major effort is underway to port Sugar activities from Python to
Javascript in anticipation <br>
of offering them in an Android environment. There are certainly many
new activities in either Python or Javascript (or both) which could
be done. In the area of Sugar activities, there is another effort to
port Python Sugar activities from GTK to GTK+3. <br>
<br>
One specific area of interest is collaboration. Our current
technique is being deprecated and so some work is needed to
re-implement activities using a collab-wrap which provides a simpler
api for activities which support collaboration. <br>
<br>
As volunteers, in the end, you should tackle what interests you.
Personally, I would like to see more effort on new development;
however, it is hard to deny the need for porting.<br>

<div>I am from BITS Pilani, India. I have contributed for sugar
labs in past, currently I am developing a better version of
turtle blocks 3D JS.</div>

</div>
<div>Me and some other enthusiasts from BITS Pilani(We love the
idea of creating educational applications) have created a
group in which students help each other in contributing to
open source organizations. Having prior experience in Sugar
Labs I thought about working on some Sugar Labs projects this
summer.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>We are planning on bug fixes and individual contributions
but we were also thinking of taking up two projects, one in
python and one in JavaScript for this summer. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Can someone from the community guide us as to which
projects to work on?</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div><b>Why we want to do this?</b></div>
<div>Like most developers, we also feel strongly for open source
but in online communities we found that setting up face to
face meetings to help each other out were difficult. So we
thought why not create our own small community which is part
of the bigger open source community.</div>
