Negroponte on OLPC's commitment to Sugar

Last month I went to an OLPC meetup and helped someone who wanted to modify the Record
activity on their OLPC.  Using Python for Sugar activities doesn't mean students will be
editing the software on their machines, because the code is still complicated.  

Activities are GTk+ applications, so you need to know about the GTk+ signals-and-slots
mechanism, what widgets are available and their properties, etc. plus a collection of
Sugar-specific modules.  Python is better than C for this, but modifying activities will still
be pretty hard, out of reach for all but the most determined students (and many adults!).
