sugarbot's aim is to provide testing and automation facilities for the OLPC Project's Sugar GUI. The project must first identify and evaluate possible implementation options, and then implement the best choice. Although it has a Sugar focus, sugarbot should be easily extensible to other Python-based GUI's.

XML-RPC

Ha! I may just go with my networking idea for telling Sugarbot what to do. Usage of XML-RPC had been discussed before, and it solves at least one problem, of how to get Sugarbot to execute different scripts without swapping out script files.

A separate XML-RPC server can feed it the commands.  Bingo!
