There's no specific optimisation being done for Sugar on the Raspberry
Pi. There is some general looking at platform optimisation in general.
I'm not sure of the status of Sugar in Debian but Sugar in Fedora ARM
is up to date to the latest OLPC stable releases they ship on the XOs
on F18 and there's an ongoing project to optimise Fedora on the
Raspberry Pi.
