Login is not https
Using my PC (ubuntu 9.04)
(I did not try to login from Xo-1 or Soas)
My policy is NOT to use password entries with http
2-)I think experimental activities need to require password

Well, pretty visible "Experimental" string could be enough.

Yes you are right about this.<br>
<br>
(I was thinking of a student who could download a activity that would
crash or hang his Soas by doing a download of an "experimental"
application just for the fun of it.....<br>
<br>
Doing so could result in problems for his teacher. But I guess most
students are on a School Server anyway.)<br>

I'll add arch detecting scheme (and per arch uploads) but it won't solve
the full issue since "detected sugar" can't mean "what packages are installed
on particular user box".

<pre wrap="">Hi all,
The ASLO[1] is based on Sugar Platform[2] idea when if activity
developer wants to be sure that activity will start, just declares
Sugar Platform range e.g. 0.82-0.88. This scheme is simple - users
need to know only SP range to judge will activity start or not.
But it doesn't work in other cases like binaries, non-SP dependencies.
These issues can't be solved within current ASLO (and current deployment
scheme, "only .xo bundles"). But we can remove, inherited from AMO,
practice when user should be logged in to download not public
activities.
So, it will look like:
* featured activities(and collections) are blessed by ASLO editors
will just work on declared sugars
* activities that just work on declared sugars
* experimental activities
work in some cases e.g. dependencies exist, machine is x86 etc.
In all cases, user should not be logged in to download all these
activity types. Does it break someone's workflows ?

<pre wrap="">I missed most obvious option, I've placed link to poll to news (left
side, under categories) section on ASLO home page.
Also please post a translate for followed gettext strings:
msgid "Poll"
msgid "Should users be logged in to download experimental activities."
msgid "Leave a vote"
