Sugar Labs is not a project, it is a organization of

<div>Well, one could argue that those are expressions Since
I am using 0.110, I haven't experienced save as for some
time so I couldn't tell when you were changing the name
through the save as dialog or through the activity
toolbar. The feature should work the same for all
activities including sugar-web. There should only be one
setting (gsetting does not depend on sugar/sugar3/web).of
the mission, not the mission itself.</div>
