[Sugar-devel] Discrepancy regarding an Activity

[Deepank Gupta]

Hi,

I think an earlier code with revision no :  85 or 84 from our code
repository(http://code.google.com/p/foodforce) has been packaged and made
into FoodforceII activity and added as addon 4219. They have just changed
the name from Foodforce2 to FoodforceII and also it is just a packaging of
revision no 85. No value addition or anything in it...

If they are claiming it is a fork of the project, why do i see no difference
at all in this game version from the previous beta activity uploaded by us.
As I understand, a fork means some development on the project which was
different from the original project.

I don't know why was it allowed to be uploaded as an activity on the
activities page. What are sugar activity page moderators doing? This way,
you can go, grab any cl of a codebase, and start packaging them as different
activities and you will have dozens of versions of the same activity
