In the last few weeks, in the various ILUG mailing lists, there has
been discussion on "School OS" [1] (Ubuntu based) which I believe has
been developed under the aegis of NCERT (I hope I got that right).
Rather than create yet another distro - it might be worthwhile
concentrating efforts on improving and extending what is already
there.
AFAIK, School OS does not include sugar desktop and activities. The OP is
looking at creating a distro based on sugar to meet the local people's
need.
Sugar interface is fine but it is essentially a Window Manager [1] and
IIRC it is available for Fedora.
Yes, But the applications targeted at school students. Everything
represented as GUI elements(Like cartoons)
Why can it not be ported/extended to the SchoolOS distro which is
based on Ubuntu? There is already some effort on the way [2].
What I am suggesting is look for convergence between the various
efforts and effective use of resources (limited).

I request you to try out the LIVE version of Sugar OS. So that you will come
to know and worth of it.
