Sugar is the desktop environment originally developed for the One Laptop per Child computer/education project and as of May 2008 being developed under the umbrella of Sugar Labs. Sugar is used on the OLPC XO-1 laptop computer and is also available as a session option on Ubuntu and Fedora. Unlike more traditional desktop environments, it does not use a "desktop" metaphor and only focuses on one task at a time.
We should include Sugar in Trisquel edu. The version included in the repository (0.79) is outdated, so we need to backport the latest stable version and it's dependencies.
Alsroot, from the sugar community, created a ppa for Trisquel edu:
