<p>Agreed. I think Sugarizer has a better immediate opportunity to
attract new users than Sugar/Python.<br>

<div>Hi Tony,</div>

<div>+1 on this.</div>

<div>BTW Sugar/Python is not the only way to grow user base.<br>

<div>For your information, we're currently deploying Sugarizer
in 3 schools in the Saint-Ouen city near Paris. It means about
150 Android tablets with Sugarizer OS installed on it, used by
few hundred children.</div>

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>
