POSSE Journal

The Sugar Labs Project (http://sugarlabs.org/)

Contributions -- The page Getting Involved lists different ways people can contribute to Sugar Labs project. GGC, we have four tracks in Information Technology, including Digital Media and Software Development. Digital Media students could contribute as designers, while Software Development students could contribute as developer. They could collaborate on the same game/education tool.

Tracker -- From the Submit Bugs page, all you need to do is to identify the activity or a sugar component repository that you think is relevant, visit the issues tab of the repo, and hit the big green button to report your issue. For each ticket, you will need to include a summary title, type, priority and milestone. Each ticket will be assigned a ticket number and its status will start with new and can change to accepted, assigned, and etc. See here for a query result.

Repository -- According to https://github.com/sugarlabs/sugar/, the most recent commit is April 29.

Release cycle -- According to Information about Sugar's release cycle and roadmap, the roadmap is update at the beginning of each release cycle.

The Sahana Eden Project (https://sahanafoundation.org/eden/)

Community -- The structure is very similar to the one that I found on Sugars Labs website. For example, designers and developers are both ways that my students can contribute. The difference lie at the different nature of each project. Sugar involves educators, while Sahana Eden involves GIS specialists.

Tracker -- According to the Sahana Eden bug tracker, the bugs report is organized by categories, such as Active Tickets, Accepted & Active Tickets by Owner, My Tickts, All tickets, and etc. For each ticket, there are also differences as to what information is shown on the summary page. For example, priority and owner are information that are not shown at the summary page for Sugar but for Sahana Eden.

Repository -- According the https://github.com/sahana/eden, the date of last commit is May 2, 2018.

Release cycle -- The the page for the information about Sahana Eden's release cycle and roadmap is organized by milestones. Each milestone contains a data, the progress (a bar showing how much of the goal is done), and a list of issues to be addressed, with issues already resolved marked done.
