[SoaS] [Sugar-devel] Testing Sugar Activities Fedora-Live-SoaS-i686-21_Beta-4

[Sebastian Silva]

I added Alice and Sara (spanish bot) but was not aware it was removed.
It certainly runs quite well in spanish XO1, as deployed in Peru.
I was not aware of responsible for the removed functionality nor was I
aware of any bugs related to it or performance.

Please add it back
