1. Project name             : Time
2. Existing website, if any : http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Time,
http://code.google.com/p/timeolpc/ <http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Time>
3. One-line description     : An Activity that can be used to explore
different aspects of telling time.


4. Longer description       : A clock that displays the time in "natural",
analog, and digital times to teach children how to tell time.
                            : Each of the clock's will have drag-able parts
and the rest will update with the one that is selected
                            : A game will be built into the clock that
teaches the children to find the analog time based on the digital time or
vice-versa

5. URLs of similar projects : None that I know of

6. Committer list

   Please list the maintainer (lead developer) as the first entry. Only list

   developers who need to be given accounts so that they can commit to your
   project's code repository, or push their own. There is no need to list

   non-committer developers.

      Username   Full name             SSH2 key URL
E-mail
      --------          ---------                      ------------

   If any developers don't have their SSH2 keys on the web, please attach
them

   to the application e-mail.

7. Preferred development model

   [X] Central tree. Every developer can push his changes directly to the
       project's git tree. This is the standard model that will be familiar
to

       CVS and Subversion users, and that tends to work well for most
projects.

   [ ] Maintainer-owned tree. Every developer creates his own git tree, or
       multiple git trees. He periodically asks the maintainer to look at
one

       or more of these trees, and merge changes into the maintainer-owned,
       "main" tree. This is the model used by the Linux kernel, and is
       well-suited to projects wishing to maintain a tighter control on code

       entering the main tree.

   If you choose the maintainer-owned tree model, but wish to set up some
   shared trees where all of your project's committers can commit directly,
   as might be the case with a "discussion" tree, or a tree for an
individual

   feature, you may send us such a request by e-mail, and we will set up the

   tree for you.

8. Set up a project mailing list:

   [ ] Yes, named after our project name
   [ ] Yes, named ______________________

   [X] No

   When your project is just getting off the ground, we suggest you eschew
   a separate mailing list and instead keep discussion about your project
   on the main OLPC development list. This will give you more input and

   potentially attract more developers to your project; when the volume of
   messages related to your project reaches some critical mass, we can
   trivially create a separate mailing list for you.

   If you need multiple lists, let us know. We discourage having many

   mailing lists for smaller projects, as this tends to
   stunt the growth of your project community. You can always add more lists
   later.

9. Commit notifications

   [ ] Notification of commits to the main tree should be e-mailed to the
list

       we chose to create above
   [ ] A separate mailing list, <projectname>-git, should be created for
commit
       notifications
   [X] No commit notifications, please

10. Shell accounts

   As a general rule, we don't provide shell accounts to developers unless

   there's a demonstrated need. If you have one, please explain here, and
   list the usernames of the committers above needing shell access.

11. Translation
   [X] Set up the laptop.org Pootle server to allow translation commits to
be made

   [ ] Translation arrangements have already been made at _______________
