I believe this included an interest in distributing libraries.

I would favor a separation between the place to get "first class 
activities" and the place to mess up the system with external built 
libraries and other dirty hacks.

Simple way to get simple (i.e. reliable!) activities is the main target 
of this service, right? Then I'd go for "activities.sugarlabs.org!

It _might_ make sense to provide a parallel service for 2nd class 
activities and their libraries. But really I think that is too complex 
to handle reliably anyway, so would be better to leave to simple web 
pages as now (at least until .xo format grows into handling 
versioned "features" as I proposed in a separate mail).
