we didn't have such experience before, and we don't have infrastructure
to translate audio, so can't follow regular way to translate activities.

Of course yes, we just need to find a way to make it clear that activity
will be useful only for particular locales (for text based activities,
lack of translation could be considered as temporary issue).

to all: activity page is
http://activities.sugarlabs.org/en-US/sugar/addon/4286
it is intended for visually impaired children and obviously doesn't
contain text widgets and in this particular case it is prety useless for
other locale users.

Any ideas how we can handle such activities.
maybe using special field like "Works with" since not all users (and
even editors:) read description.
