we already released this module for review last year: https://lists.fedorahosted.org/pipermail/fuel-discuss/2011-June/000172.html for desktop module, application chosen from Open Source system, but all the applications were commonly used in various operating systems, so entries taken from those applications share common terminology across platform. So mobile module is also created with common used/available terms in various devices without considering os. As fuel goal is to achieve consistency across platform would be better to keep terms independent of any particular platform. -- A S Alam --------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
