[Sugar-devel] Sugarizer flatpak package

[Tony Anderson]

I am not familiar with this approach. How would the user install a 
flatpack version on his computer. Would it need to be a Linux 
distribution or could it be Windows 10 or MacOS? How would the user 
access the installed Sugar - launch as an application in his os or 
reboot / chroot as we do between Gnome and Sugar? Would the flatpack 
application require separate partitions or share the installed os disk 
space?
