The problem here is that edubuntu and its packages are in Ubuntu Main,<br>
and for sugar to be in there, there must be no non-free software in<br>
it, and squeak is not totally free. Apple fonts not being modifiable,<br>
iirc. Its pretty much the same policy as debian. Scratch was recently<br>
rejected from MOTU for the similar reasons.<br>
