[IAEP] [Sugar-devel] Sugar on a Stick v2 Release Naming

[Sean DALY]

As long as no one (including developers) is confused that "SoaS
release 1( Strawberry)" alias "SoaS-2" is running Sugar v0.84 and
Fedora 11.

I'm just wondering why "SoaS-2" is in use... non-initiates will assume
that means SoaS release 2 (Blueberry), don't you think?

thanks

Sean
