Ubuntu Hardy gets Sweeter with Sugar!
,----[ Quote ]
| Wow, what a nice surprise! (This has actually been in development since
| December of last year :o) The OLPC Sugar desktop environment is available in
| the Ubuntu Hardy repository! You can use the emulator to run it in a window
| or login as a full blown desktop through GDM (the default login screen for
| (X)Ubuntu users)!

A Cutting Edge Sugar User Interface Demo
,----[ Quote ]
| Overall I have to say that I'm very impressed by the improvements that Sugar
| has seen over the past few months. While it may take some time for them to
| trickle down into the stable builds it's great to see into what general
| direction things are moving. Personally I'm currently running faster 2056 and
| it's a relatively smooth ride so far with the notable exception of 'record'
| not working. And as much as I love 'record' the improved activity startup
| time alone more than makes up for this loss.

| More radical changes may be in store for the future. A lot of Sugar's
| features, like the mesh networking, user presence support, and the Journal's
| file store, could be useful across the Linux desktop, so these may end up
| decoupled from the Sugar UI and made available for separate use in a range of
| applications.
