I'm also doing some documentation.
I've written some python doc strings for the python sugar base class
sugar.activity.Activity. Tomeu told me to 'use the source' and it
seems like a good idea to keep at least the API docs tightly bound to
the actual sources. I'll do some more of those on the other basic
APIs I'll be needing at least for my own activities.
They are slightly verbose, not too formal, so the children can use
them too. Especially the file and class level comments will contain
general 'do this to get a working Activity' hints. See https://
dev.laptop.org/ticket/4358 or the source once someone has committed
them.

I think it would be very nice to try to tie the API docs into the How-
tos and other docs on the wiki. This discussion is planned on IRC?
Where, when?
