Comment:

 Hi MIchael,

 A solution to the NAND full problem is still a blocker for 8.2.0. I
 understand that we don't think we can build a solution that reliably boots
 to sugar then allows the users to delete the items they want to delete
 from the journal.

 I believe we have a fall back solution which:
 1 - Pops up a dialog box when your NAND is close to full
 2 - Starts the script proposed at 7591 when the NAND is full
 3 - Allows boot to sugar if the user choose that from the script
 4 - Allows opening a terminal in sugar and running a script or just using
 rm to make space.

 That's my understanding but I need the full solution which we can and will
 implement described in one coherent message (e-mail, wiki, trac comment,
 whatever) so that I can explain it to Uruguay.

 I think that solution should be tracked under this bug but I'm open to
 tracking it elsewhere as needed. Getting that solution described and
 implemented is a blocker and my position is that we should not release
 without it.

 Thanks,

 Greg S
