SugarForge Facelift

You may have noticed the recent changes we've made to SugarForge.org.

Among other things, project collaboration and development occurs in a new Projects tab located on the Sugar community site. Other tabs on the site offer access to everything the Sugar community has to offer.

The non-developer segment of our community accesses the same overall site using the new SugarOpenSource.org URL but they're initially directed to the Open Source tab.

We hope you like the new site and the sharper developer focus of SugarForge and this newsletter.

The Sugar Dev-User Group (SDUG) has hit its stride. Just yesterday Ken Brill and Max Blackmer (below) produced a terrific session about the manifest file and vardefs.
