<p>Hi, Walter</p>
<p>Is there a link to a description of the proposed new
server? I assume that what you mean is that a new
physical server will become host to ASLO. Naturally, I
am much more interested in the capabilities of the
service than the server.<br>

<p>It is really hard for me to see any connection between
<a href="http://activity.info" target="_blank"
moz-do-not-send="true">activity.info</a> and an
activity service (which supplies information about
activities and downloads the bundle on request).I
assume these consistency tests are made before a new
activity version is released and is part of the process
of creating a github repository.<br>

<div>The database for ASLO3 is derived from the <a
href="http://activity.info" target="_blank"
moz-do-not-send="true">activity.info</a> files. But those
data need cleaning up. This is why we have not gone live
with the new server. </div>

<p>The python script can use a loop on the list of
bundles:<br>
</p>
<p>for activity in activities:</p>
<p> #use zipfile to read the <a
href="http://activity.info" target="_blank"
moz-do-not-send="true">activity.info</a> file <br>
</p>
<p> #count or test for any property <br>
</p>
<p> #report (e.g. print ) result of test by activity<br>
</p>
<p>#report summary of loop execution<br>
</p>
<p><br>
</p>
I do not have any idea of what you are referring to by a
screenshot. I certainly hope there is no intent to add a
screenshot to an activity bundle. It may be fun to revel
in storage available on a PC but the overwhelming number
of our users have XO laptops with very limited storage.
This is similar to the trend to make Sugar more dependent
on the internet. For example, sudo apt-get install sucrose
is difficult to accomplish in a room with 40 laptops and
no internet, the current situation in Rwanda with the
Positivo laptop.<br>

<div>We use screenshots in the activity portal. They need not
be included in the bundles. </div>

The number of activities mentioned is consistent

<div>Yes. We have an on-going effort to migrate to a new
activity server which is both easier to maintain and a
richer experience for our users.</div>

<p>A simple python script can process the <a
href="http://activity.info" target="_blank"
moz-do-not-send="true">activity.info</a> in
activity bundles very quickly. Simply download
every activity bundle and then use import zipfile
to read the <a href="http://activity.info"
target="_blank" moz-do-not-send="true">activity.info</a>
file and check it for whatever is interesting. I
generally use ls -1 *.xo > list to create a
file. The python script can easily form a list of
activities from this file. <br>
