Okay, let me shed some light in here, though I think this has already
been discussed in length.
In the early days when I started working on SoaS, we still had internal

We've agreed the Sugar on a Stick v2 Release Name to be "Blueberry",
and nobody's objected t
As long as no one (including developers) is confused that "SoaS
release 1( Strawberry)" alias "SoaS-2" is running Sugar v0.84 and

I'm just wondering why "SoaS-2" is in use... non-initiates will assume
that means SoaS release 2 (Blueberry), don't you think?

Numbers are for the developers, ice cream flavours are for the press /
GUI users, as I understand it.

Our marketing strategy is to push Sugar on a Stick, so to simplify

I've been watching this thread since it began and understand that from
a marketing perspective numbers are 'ugly'.
On the other hand, everyone seems to acknowledge that numbers make it
easier to track things from a development and
deployment support perspective. Obviously, that works best if the

in fact I often worry about talking too much during the marketing
meetings, others not getting a word in. I'd be delighted if
nonmarketing Sugar Labs team members lurked or participated, although
I have clear ideas about how to work on marketing puzzles I'll never
claim to have all t

No, there wasn't "marketing decided", it was Tomeu who thought of
flavors, myself who thought of ice cream flavors (preferably fruit
since "natural" wholesome sugars, a "fun treat for kids"), and
sdziallas who agreed to the idea at the marketing meeting.

In fact Martin if I remember correctly we had already discussed this

The idea is to maximize launch impact by keeping the element of
surprise on our side. This is also why the ice-cream shop doesn't
announce their summer specials in advance - people like t

Ok. I hadn't picked up on this, despite being in the meeting when it

Hi Martin
The idea is ice cream flavors and Blueberry works since I had rollup
banners and posters made in both the Strawberry and Blueberry colors,
keeping them current for at least a couple of years (considering their
cost).
However, as stated previously it hasn't been our plan to name SoaS
