Yes. Also the future feature where the Home view resumes activities by default will have another large impact here. We should find a lot less 'noise' getting added to the Journal (make things easier to find). Though this will come with an increased risk of children un- intentionally re-editing previous works, perhaps a future datastore/ Journal with some level of version control (as has been discussed) will solve that case if it does become an issue. --Gary _______________________________________________ Devel mailing list Devel@lists.laptop.org http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/devel
