Please add a brief change log to your release announcements.  The git
commit logs are split across multiple repositories, are too detailed,
and have merge commits.

I've built RPMs for Fedora 20, using Peter's src.rpm for Fedora 22.

http://rpmdropbox.laptop.org/f20/?C=M;O=D

I've no idea how he did what he did, but the src.rpm works for me on
Fedora 20.  ;-)

The ARM RPMs were built in a Fedora 20 mock (mock --rebuild), the i686
RPMs were built outside a mock (rpmbuild --rebuild).

Tested on Fedora 20 on XO-4.

The autocomplete of activity name in search entry (2ac6c3c) does work,
though it can be disconcerting.  Perhaps it should mark the completion
as selected text, so that further typing will erase it.  Be a slow
typer and type "C l o c k" and you get "Clockock".

Busy cursor during activity launch doesn't appear to work.  There was
no attempt to flush the display.  No idea if there was a ticket for
this, it isn't mentioned in the commit:

Can be fixed by using the technique in the following commit:

https://github.com/sugarlabs/sugar/commit/726aaeeff70848b7f31c7ae6e4392a4d49f2d7d1

I'm not touching it for a few days in case GCI team want to take it
on.
