I've seen the FoodForce2 posts some time ago... great work! :)

Well, I can't speak for the Sugar process (to get it included in Honey), 
but for SoaS: We can include whatever is reasonably requested - though 
being on activities.sugarlabs.org is a requirement. I think it would be 
awesome to have FoodForce2 on it...

Does anyone object to adding it?

Sean, maybe this would even be something worth promoting?
