The goal remains, though the mentors in that meeting didn't mention it; give them some slack, they haven't been especially heavy contributors to Sugar Labs. Of the three mentors present, Divyanshu, Onuwa, and Ibiam, only Ibiam has been a recently active contributor, and not to the Wiki, Help activity or <a href="https://help.sugarlabs.org/" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://help.sugarlabs.org/</a> Re: Hello World. It is a coding example, has no use otherwise, so it should not be in <a href="http://activities.sugarlabs.org" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">activities.sugarlabs.org</a>; I've disabled it. Version will be incremented when a release is made. Repository has no release tags. We need an activity maintainer for it. A checklist for maintaining an activity is here; <a href="https://github.com/sugarlabs/sugar-docs/blob/master/src/contributing.md#checklist---maintainer" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://github.com/sugarlabs/sugar-docs/blob/master/src/contributing.md#checklist---maintainer</a> Across the activity set, we have very few activity maintainers. This will change as the GSoC coding period begins; particularly as Yash and Rahul begin working. Back on topic; Rudra's project has a purpose; it is a subset of activity maintenance, but the coding is automation that will be used _once_. Possibly a brain-numbing exercise, akin to road construction during the Irish potato famine. I've been a reviewer for the pull requests so far; four of them just now. Mentors, Walter, Tony, and others could help by reviewing Rudra's pull requests as they are made rather than leaving it to me. ;-) @Rudra, my recommendation is to set an order of work; start with the demonstration set of activities (Fructose), because we keep these maintained well, then work on the activities that Tony has listed as working with Ubuntu 18.04 or Thomas has listed as working with Fedora 28. @Rudra, also think through the whole ecosystem from coding to user, and propose changes to your project in response to your reading of the current mailing list thread. We're not expecting you to be a compliant robot, but an imaginative student. Situation reminds me of something I saw in the student guide; <a href="https://google.github.io/gsocguides/student/finding-the-right-project.html" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://google.github.io/gsocguides/student/finding-the-right-project.html</a> "Don’t be that person: Cut and pasting an idea from the organization page and turning that in as your project’s description is a big no-no. You’ll be expected to research and submit your own ideas about how to accomplish the project your way, not just state the end result."
