Still very busy with moving from the US to Europe.

Please go ahead with sugarizing Tux-Paint.
What needs to be considered is the large installed XO-1 base, i.e. the 
interface to the journal
has to support the different datastore formats in Sugar 0.82 - 0.88.

Localization works out of the box with the localization features in the 
standard tuxpaint
distribution. In fact the reason I started with tuxpaint on the XO-1 was 
to get a Dutch version
for my grandson.

In the coming months I probably have some more time to spend on Sugar 
and the XO.
So, please keep me in the loop, if possible.
