I put it as a point for discussion for tomorrow's developer meeting. We 
should see where we want to invest in terms of sugar-jhbuild.

As well I think for an Activity developer there is no need to use 
sugar-jhbuild. He can use the system installation. Gonzalo is there a 
page that describes the basic steps to do to develop an activity, let's 
say on Fedora? I found [1] which is a bit more global advice when 
looking around. The guidelines at [2] are nice as well but do not talk 
about how to setup the environment. Any pointers welcome.
