Re: [sugar] Proposal: Activity developers mailing list

Another simplement argument: this will be clearer for users to know where to send feedback. If you have a question about a particular activity, ask on the activity list. For other questions ask on the Sugar list. -- Bastien ___ Sugar mailing list Sug

Re: [sugar] Proposal: Activity developers mailing list

Hi Morgan, I prefer it on lists.laptop.org. Mainly because I don't have capacity to watch lists from two mailman servers. It also depends somewhat on the purpose. We need to communicate dependencies, APIs, and other things related to activities on the XO. Hopefully we can use this list for tha
