I agree with Martin. Having a configurable list of 'core' activities that the UI won't offer 'erase'.<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Fri, May 22, 2009 at 2:36 PM, Martin Langhoff <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:martin.langhoff@gmail.com">martin.langhoff@gmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br>

</div>Yes. And also, because it's very easy to install new activities.<br>
<br>
People patching Sugar to remove 'erase' are changing one problem for<br>
another. When children discover how to install activities, they'll<br>
install *a lot of them* and fill up their storage space (it's happened<br>
a lot in Uruguay). The solution is to show them how to delete them, so<br>
you don't want to disable it :-)<br>
<br>
The right solution may be in having a configurable list of 'core'<br>
activities that the UI won't offer 'erase' for. Browse.xo belongs<br>
there surely.<br>
<br>
