To the contrary, the words Sugar on a Stick actually mean something. Actually they mean two things: Sugar environment on a USB stick in the context of software, and a kind of candy in the context of food. </blockquote>
<div><br>+1<br><br>I've talked to a lot of people about this concept. Based on my experience I want a name that I can say and people can get some idea of what I mean. Then I can joke and say "code name Lollipop" and give out lollipops, but first I need people to know what I'm talking about. But Sugar on a Stick has a ring to it and communicates. <br>
<br>If we want to name the release candidates lollipop-1 lollipop-2 etc. I'm ok with that. I have no attachment to the acronym SoaS. But the official project name for Sugar on a Stick should stay "Sugar on a Stick".<br>

<br>I think that if we are producing an "Official" Sugar distribution that is intended to run on XOs, PCs, USB sticks, emulators, etc. perhaps SoaS is a little too specific.<br><br>Regards,<br><font color="#888888">Wade<br>
