[Sugar-devel] Ideal futures for the "I Know" Sugar activities Sugar-devel Digest, Vol 135, Issue 38

[Srevin Saju]

will it make a good GSoC task?

I like the idea of uniform IKnow** activity.
Possibly, a good suggestion would be to have a single IKnowCountry
activity, with countries as submodules. installing the data files for each
country should show up in the IKnowCountry home page with buttons on
installed IKnow* activity. this would allow more iknow* activities to be
developed, better too.
