[Sugar-devel] GSoC project- Sugar on Raspberry Pi image build

[James Cameron]

Thanks to Thomas for testing and comparison of a recent Fedora SoaS
image, which has way more activities and has automatic login
configured.

https://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Debian/Raspberry_Pi updated.

Given this, and the problems so far with rpi23-gen-image missing out
on recommended packages, and the two weeks it has taken to not fix the
automatic login, and their unfamiliarity with X server display manager
configuration, may I suggest the team switch to using Fedora SoaS?

This will set them forward on their task significantly, while still
meeting the original project idea.

There's also an issue with distributing the wireless firmware; Fedora
avoids it, but provides a FAQ explaining how to download it.  As
Fedora has a problem with distributing, so too may Sugar Labs.
