You can either do not use "appVersion" and update-aslo.php will return
recent versions or just create collection. The activity-testing.sl.o
implementation allows setting particular activity versions (it will be
pushed to production after testing within dextrose-2, that was the
purpose for this feature). In the last case, collection content will be
accessible via microformat page, eg:
