That might come as a surprise, but

					Plasma == Active

Making a difference between those (and the KDE workspace) only makes sense in 
a very limited scope. There's only a technical difference, but as we're 
explicitely excluding technicalities and focus on vision, just assume they're 
the same.

					Workspace == Plasma

Same thing here:
	- by attending a sprint about Plasma/Active, you are by definition part of 
    it: you contribute, otherwise you wouldn't be there
  - Might make it easier: You can easily be taking part in more than one 
    project.

Aaron struck a note here that explained to me why I hadn't registered earlier 
to the sprint -- simply because I didn't feel part of it. By changing the 
name, you get that kind of result, and I don't think it's actually a desired 
one.
