The problem is that it raises havoc to change the service name, so I left that much alone. (This way, when you use the updater, the proper activity is updated.) But I made the name change itself at the request of the original author. There are about to be 2-3 more activities in the family: TurtleArduino, TurtleArtWithSensors, to name two. Projects should be generally interchangeable between all versions. -walter cheers, m -- martin.langh...@gmail.com mar...@laptop.org -- School Server Architect - ask interesting questions - don't get distracted with shiny stuff - working code first - http://wiki.laptop.org/go/User:Martinlanghoff ___ Sugar-devel mailing list Sugar-devel@lists.sugarlabs.org http://lists.sugarlabs.org/listinfo/sugar-devel -- Walter Bender Sugar Labs http://www.sugarlabs.org ___ Sugar-devel mailing list Sugar-devel@lists.sugarlabs.org http://lists.sugarlabs.org/listinfo/sugar-devel

But if you search for 'turtle art' and ASLO finds Turtle Art and Turtle Blocks, you naturally click on Turtle Art - right? And it leads to Turtle Art 1 which is version... 1. Which was clearly not correct. Anyway -- careful reading helped me understand. But this is a pandora box of confusion, I'd say. Maybe taking the old Turtle Art, making it be Turtle Art again and releasing a slimmed-down turtle_art-88.xo ; and making the full monty edition take another name...? cheers, m -- martin.langh...@gmail.com mar...@laptop.org -- School Server Architect - ask interesting questions - don't get distracted with shiny stuff - working code first - http://wiki.laptop.org/go/User:Martinlanghoff ___ Sugar-devel mailing list Sugar-devel@lists.sugarlabs.org http://lists.sugarlabs.org/listinfo/sugar-devel

The problem with that is that people who already have TA and want to update will suddenly get the slimmed-down version. People who are new to TA will not have a problem either way. -walter cheers, m -- martin.langh...@gmail.com mar...@laptop.org -- School Server Architect - ask interesting questions - don't get distracted with shiny stuff - working code first - http://wiki.laptop.org/go/User:Martinlanghoff -- Walter Bender Sugar Labs http://www.sugarlabs.org ___ Sugar-devel mailing list Sugar-devel@lists.sugarlabs.org http://lists.sugarlabs.org/listinfo/sugar-devel
