<div dir="ltr">Andrés,<br><br>Go is one of my favorite games, so I'm excited to see
that someone has picked up development again! It requires such balance
between aggressiveness and defense, as well as local play vs spreading
out on the board - I think it's a great game for kids to learn. I look
forward to trying out a new version, and I agree that collaboration is
an important problem to tackle soon. Adding GnuGo (<a href="http://www.gnu.org/software/gnugo/" target="_blank">http://www.gnu.org/software/gnugo/</a>)
support would be a great addition too. It would be nice to support
GnuGo and collaboration over the same networking framework, but I don't
know enough about the collaboration framework and Bitfrost to know if
this is a possibility. GnuGo generally runs as it's own process and
communicates over GTP (<a href="http://www.gnu.org/software/gnugo/gnugo_19.html#SEC196" target="_blank">http://www.gnu.org/software/gnugo/gnugo_19.html#SEC196</a>).<br>
<br>It seems there's a lack of documentation for people like yourself
who want to pick up development on an existing activity. Most people
who want shell access to <a href="http://dev.laptop.org/" target="_blank">dev.laptop.org</a>
also want to host a new activity. I wasn't able to find anything on the
wiki about requesting shell access. Maybe putting a blurb on the wiki
about who to contact would be helpful.<br>

Hello all!<br>
<br>
I've recently started learning python and sugar programming and, while<br>
trying to be useful in the meantime, have been tinkering around with the<br>
PlayGo activity.<br>
I have a few patches that add basic scorekeeping, error messages<br>
(like: "There already is a stone there!"), and small code cleanup. I'd like<br>
to start tackling bigger problems (like collaboration) in the future.<br>
However, cjb told me on #sugar the best way to get this commited is having<br>
commit access to the git repo. I couldn't find a "Commit access application"<br>
in the wiki, so I'm using part of the project hosting application here :) :<br>
<br>
1. Project name : PlayGo<br>
2. Existing website, if any : <a href="http://wiki.laptop.org/go/PlayGo" target="_blank">http://wiki.laptop.org/go/PlayGo</a><br>
3. One-line description : A Go game activity<br>

11. Translation<br>
[X] Set up the <a href="http://laptop.org" target="_blank">laptop.org</a> Pootle server to allow translation commits to be<br>
made<br>
<br>
12. Notes/comments: The project already is on the git repository:<br>
<a href="http://dev.laptop.org/git?p=projects/PlayGo;a=summary" target="_blank">http://dev.laptop.org/git?p=projects/PlayGo;a=summary</a> . But I couldn't find<br>
it in the pootle server. It'd be great to have it added.<br>
<br>
Also, I'm Uruguayan so I'll take care of the spanish translation :). If anyone<br>
needs any help with Spanish, I'm usually around at #olpc :D<br>
