I would encourage that F11-S0.88 _not_ become an official Sugar Labs at this time. My biggest concern is maintenance responsible. If the project becomes an official project, Sugar Labs has an implied maintenance responsibility. If F11-S0.88 sucks, it will cast a long shadow on the upstream project Sugar Labs not the downstream project where that shadow belongs. On the other hand, if Sugar Labs would like to assume maintenance responsibility they are welcome to roll the project into SL. david _______________________________________________ IAEP -- It's An Education Project (not a laptop project!)
