I had a brief chat with marco on IRC about activity_id. This is stored in the datastore, unpacked to activityhandle data structure, and used to identify an instance in a way that persists across resumes. I think instance_id is a much better name for such a thing, and would be willing to make the patch (basically just a global search-and-replace).<br>
<br>Marco says that the this is part of a larger mess, and so he seemed more interested in redesign than in such small tinkering. I think that it's not an either/or choice: tinkering helps redesign, it doesn't get in the way. He suggested I discuss it on the ML, so here I am. The other possible issue is if this is API which is used by any activities: I really think not, and I'll do my best to check, but if you know of anything please say so.<br>
<br>If you want to use this thread to talk about the larger issues, please do, it is an important discussion. But don't forget to opine on whether I should do this one little patch.<br><br>Jameson<br>
