Part A


The Sugar Labs Project Anatomy

Contributions

Depending on the students' background, the students can be a content writer, people person, developer, designer, and translator.

Tracker

The general process for submitting a bug: "If you find a bug or would like to report an issue with Sugar, visit https://github.com/sugarlabs and look for the activity or a sugar component repository hat you think is relevant. If you don't know which one to use, use https://github.com/sugarlabs/sugar, and be sure to sign up and sign in to Github. Then visit the issues tab of the repo, and hit the big green button to report your issue."

There are two types of tickets: defect and enhancement.

The information available for each ticket include the ticket number, summary, status, owner, type, priority, and milestone.

Repository

The last commit is at 13:50 on August 22, 2016. It seems to be a both web-based and local repository.

Release cycle

This is an entry: "Sugar platform release version cycle: | 0.82 | 0.84 | 0.86 | 0.88 | 0.90 | 0.92 | 0.94 | 0.96 | 0.98 | 0.100 | 0.102 | 0.104 | 0.106 | 0.108 | 0.110 | "

The roadmap is updated at the beginning of each release cycle by the release team.


The Sahana Eden Project Anatomy

Contributions

Depending on the students' background, they can be developers, testers, sys. admin, documenters, designers or translators.

Tracker

The tracker page is very similar to the Sugar Labs project, but it can list all active tickets by priority, and color each row based on priority.

There are four types of tickets: defect/bug, enhancement, documentation, and task.

The information available for each ticket include the ticket number, summary, component, version, priority, type, owner, status, and created date.

Repository

Sahana Eden can be installed on several different operating systems. It seems to be a local repository.

Release cycle

I did not find a release cycle. There is a roadmap that shows three milestones.

An example entry: ” Milestone: 0.9.0 "Medway"

5 years late (12/01/11 18:00:00) 92%

Number of tickets: closed: 98 active: 9 Total: 107 “
