With my Activities Team hat in my head, I want do few suggestions:

* Try to use the new toolbars. If you want maintain compatibility with old
sugar, will need implement the two toolbars (old and new),
but with simple activities is not too difficult. We are trying implement
new toolbars in old the activities, and will do easier
migrate to new Sugar versions. Generally, we put all the buttons in the
toolbar. If you need help with icons can request to the Design team
in this list.

* You can request inclusion of the activity in the pootle server and enable
translators to do their job.

* If you can implement saving and reading a standard format as GEDCOM, the
possibilities are increased because
you enable the "high ceil". If the kids want continue and need a more
powerful application, can use their work,
and also can interchange with other sources.

Thanks for your work, I am sure this activity will be used a lot.
