Tx guys!
As a small nitpick, I'd recommend dropping 'XO' from the name. While
I just discovered that I omitted this detail while discussing naming
in the HIG, it doesn't really provide any useful information in the
activity name itself. Moreover, since Sugar is quickly becoming
available on various distributions, it's incorrect to tie Sugar
activities to the XO itself, which is the name of the OLPC specific
hardware.
It would still be fine, of course, to refer to activities (especially
those that are brethren of applications already found on other OSes)
as, perhaps, "Sugar Lambda" to differentiate them in the public image,
but even then it doesn't seem necessary to include it in the activity
name itself. =)
Good points, thank you Eben.
Lambda activity it is!
Shall I resubmit a hosting request with the name change ?
PS. I'm somewhat unfamiliar with the project hosting process, but
would there be a good place to introduce this type of information, so
we can make things as simple as possible? Should we just mention this
guideline/requirement on the wiki page
(http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Project_hosting) or the application? I
think the name is the only item on the application which needs to
adhere to a guideline. However, we might link to the full HIG from
that page anyway, and/or include a link to it in the project hosting
response, to get budding developers pointed in the right direction.
I would have caught it if it was mentioned on the Project_hosting wiki
page.
