The founder of Sugar labs, Walter Bender, will be in India from about
21-29 August (i.e. now) and will speak at HBCSE in Mumbai on 28
August, 4-6 pm, for those interested in furthering the importance of
good quality primary education. It is an open, public, meeting.

Sugar is the platform developed for the xo NetBook under the olpc
program, and is available on most general purpose computers today, and
also on a pen drive for a test drive before installation. It provides
children with a playground to learn, with communication and
collaboration key ingredients.
