I agree "Sugar on a Stick" should be only the Fedora based sh script installed USB and SD software that sugarlabs produces.

I am calling other variants (except for Strawberry or "Blueberry") "Sugar Desktop on a Stick" to distinguish them. these are "full install" (Anaconda and maybe zyx-liveinstaller?) SD/USB and their images, F11, F12 @Sugar-Desktop installs with and without Gnome, KDE, XFCE.

VMPlayer Appliances are "Sugar (F11,F12/opensuse11.1/..etc.)Appliances. etc.

I also wish that the range of rim colors available for the XO choice in F1 Neighborhood would distinguish what Distribution they are based on...
ie:
greens opensuse-edu
blues :blueberry
reds s-strawberry
etc... but this may be asking too much to do.

Sorry about top posting, but I agree with most of what you said below,

I really think that your initiative has big future and understand that
it's still in an early stage. I also think that something like that
could help SLs greatly.

But what I was referring to is that there's a community of people
working on a project called "sugar on a stick" and one individual has
launched a site with that same name talking about a derivative of it.

I was a bit surprised by the usage of "sugaronastick.com" as well.  On
the other hand, since we can't seem to define what the SoaS
(sugaronastick?) project is or isn't, where is the problem?

Let's say (for example), that somebody had ported Sugar to Linspire
and made a bootable USB stick from it.  Would that be "sugar on a
stick"?  If so why shouldn't they use the domain sugaronastick.com if
they registered it before anyone else?

On what moral (not to mention legal) basis, would you argue that what
they had done was wrong?  Caroline did something related to Sugar, how
is this not a good thing?   Let the confusion begin!
Err maybe confusion IS the problem?  Maybe some concrete explicit
limits to things which
are documented somewhere other then rambling reoccurring mailing list
threads could be useful.

Yellow and Red are both fine colors for our soccer teams uniforms.
But it gets real confusing
for spectators if everyone on the team picks their favorite and so
does everyone on the opposing team as well.  It may not even matter
which color (definition of SoaS) we pick, but it does
matter if people pick different ones.
