Hi James et al

If we had one group named "one laptop per child" that may be interpreted as
Sugar only works on XOs. Is there a way the name could be more reflective of
the diversity of Sugar? Sorry I don't have the answer there.
The other question is do they use good tags/keywords as this might mean the
name of the group is less of an issue as the books/manuals can still be
found.
I just noticed this email was addressed to three sugarlabs lists and no olpc
lists.

Kind regards
