Hi, 
There was a recent discussion about whether the new project icon would be in the new release or not. Some about the OLPC needs.
Was a decision reached?

If not, I would speak in favor of leaving that icon where it is. As I was starting students with Etoys this week I noticed how many used that icon, the back and forward arrows, and the little windows in the top left corner of the world to move around in projects. My lab computers then become a set of current examples of classwork that each class during the day can look at to see other people's ideas. 
They have learned to remove the little window project when they publish their own. They use the menu, read the choices, and choose correctly every time.
Regards,
Kathleen
