-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: RIPEMD160 Hi David and everyone else,
Thanks for the nice background and summary. I have but a single comment: On Thu, Jun 18, 2009 at 10:10:32PM -0500, David Farning wrote: >The questions that people are posing today are not easy >to answer.

I fail to see how any resources would be lost by clearly separating work on "Sugar" (the desktop) and "Sugar on a Stick" (the USB stick optimized distribution containing Sugar). It seems to me that Sugarlabs is currently promoting SoaS as a Sugarlabs effort but avoid the term "distribution". A car is a car. A distribution is a distribution. I suggest to instead promote SoaS as the distribution currently best optimized for Sugar. Such change in promotion would encourage friendly competition among distributions. It would also leave room for other distributions promoting their alternative products as SoaS as well, if they feel that it fits the description of "currently best optimized for Sugar" ;-) Kind regards, - Jonas - -- * Jonas Smedegaard - idealist og Internet-arkitekt * Tlf.: +45 40843136 Website: http://dr.jones.dk/ [x] quote me freely [ ] ask before reusing [ ] keep private -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (GNU/Linux) iEYEAREDAAYFAko7RicACgkQn7DbMsAkQLi8xQCeLD/o4Rbur7sJH9s0QeVj+Rbx xCQAnjmTc8B159ZA294RR07kihUc9bjy =hFZW -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ IAEP -- It's An Education Project (not a laptop project!)
