[IAEP] [Sugar-devel] ASLO Suggestion

[Sean DALY]

FWIW, I have tried and failed to understand fructose, glucose, honey,
etc. When I get around to writing a little Activity I guess I'll climb
that learning curve.

I'm sure it's a useful classification system, but I don't think
teachers, parents, or Learners need any level of system architecture
detail. Simpler is better.

If tagging is possible for each Activity, perhaps it would be better
to do that? a simple search on "fructose" would return the list,
right?
