        <div>For your information, we're currently deploying Sugarizer

            What Sugar Labs needs to survive is users. If our count of
            active users <br>
            reaches zero, there will be no need for developers (or Sugar
            Labs).<br>
            <br>
            A Conference like PyCon is an opportunity to show that Sugar
            is a viable <br>
            educational platform. So marketing does not need to be
            concerned about <br>
            $, it needs to be concerned about the characteristics of
            Sugar that make <br>
            it an attractive option for educators. At such a conference
            it is <br>
            possible to make presentations - ofen there is an
            educational track. <br>
            More importantly there is an opportunity to have an exhibit
            (booth). <br>
            This booth can provide many examples of Sugar running on
            platforms other <br>
            than the XO (make sure there some XO pictures visible since
            this <br>
            attracts interest to a booth.) Sugarizer can demonstrate
            that Sugar is <br>
            available for smartphones, tablets and other devices. Sugar
            can show its <br>
            capabilities on Ubuntu, Raspbian. Windows is a special case
            since <br>
            Miccrosoft has been able to lock educators into Windows.
            Showing that <br>
            Sugar is viable in a Windows-based deployment may be beyond
            our current <br>
            cabability.<br>
            <br>
            Our goal should be to attract new contributors and to find
            new <br>
            deployment opportunities.<br>
