[Sugar-devel] Does it make sense to have Activities copy text to the clipboard?

[James Simmons]

I'm using Fedora 20 and the version of sugar-runner that ships with that.
I'm modifying the Gtk3 versions of the code that Aneesh Dogra did for last
year's GCI. It doesn't sound like Sugar is the issue here.
