Yes, you are right about the the disconnect _and_ the disconnect is inherent to the upstream downstream projects. Upstream tend to focus on pushing the technology forward. Open source developers like to work at the bleeding edge. On the other side, deployers often _need_ to support a version of software for three or more years. If you you want to host a application which runs on an older version of Sugar, as is on the recent XO releases, you will need to conform to the older versions API and quirks. Then when uploading it to ASLO you can tick a box to mark the Sugar release on which it runs. If you you want to host a application which runs on the current version of sugar, as is on the recent SoaS releases, you will need to conform to the newer versions API and quirks. Then when uploading it to ASLO you can tick a box to mark the Sugar release on which it runs. Hopefully as Sugar Labs and deployers better understand each others needs, we can work together to minimize these disconnects. david > Art Hunkins > > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "Tomeu Vizoso" <[email protected]> > To: "Art Hunkins" <[email protected]> > Cc: <[email protected]> > Sent: Sunday, August 02, 2009 5:45 AM > Subject: Re: [Sugar-devel] Screen Reposition? > > >> Yes, a specific setting needs to be used for SoaS to have nice font >> sizes on the XO.
