[Sugar-devel] Sugar bundleBuilder

[James Simmons]

Gonzalo,

The chapters in MYOSA that might be out of date are these:

http://en.flossmanuals.net/make-your-own-sugar-activities/package-the-activity/

http://en.flossmanuals.net/make-your-own-sugar-activities/add-your-activity-code-to-version-control/
(what belongs in .gitignore?)

http://en.flossmanuals.net/make-your-own-sugar-activities/going-international-with-pootle/

http://en.flossmanuals.net/make-your-own-sugar-activities/distribute-your-activity/

I'm not looking for anyone to update these chapters.  I'm more looking for
"this is wrong and this is what it should say instead."
