That's not far from the truth, right? At least in any work-losing or surprising way... In case anyone lacks context, here's what the HIG says about "keep": it's saving a copy/backup file: "activities can ... specify "keep-hints" which prompt the system to keep a copy. ... a child may choose to invoke a keep-hint by selecting the "keep in journal" button ..." -- http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Design_Team/Human_Interface_Guidelines#The_Notion_of_.22Keeping.22 Are there any other discussions like "activity versioning" and "datastore versioning" that are relevant that people could share for context? > some kind of visual feedback (to appear after clicking Keep) that > makes it pretty obvious that you've just forked your work - that way > you'd quickly learn the true functionality and know when and when > not to use it.
