==Initial motivation for the Taxonomy page== | |||
Benjamin M. Schwartz has proposed a taxonomy for the various Sugar components to remedy an ongoing naming problem. | |||
"I think Sugar has a naming problem. There are a lot of different digital | |||
objects being produced by this project, and referring to all of them as | |||
Sugar is becoming increasingly confusing. For example, the discussion | |||
about "Sugar on Windows" has been all but incomprehensible, because each | |||
author means something entirely different by the term "Sugar". Similarly, | |||
the recent proposals for "inclusion in Sugar" are extremely confusing, | |||
since these components will not be required to run Sugar. | |||
"To resolve this, I am going to attempt to list a number of important, | |||
distinct digital objects that this work has produced. I will also | |||
introduce cutesy codenames. I hope that the Sugar developers will adopt a | |||
clear set of distinct names, and I do not care if they choose these names | |||
or other names." | |||
