Thanks for looking at this Joe.

I don't know the Fedora processes to be able to recommend exact
actions, or probable outcomes in the face of inaction.

Sugar Live Build's list of activities is the Sugar Labs "Fructose"
set; they are maintained along with Sugar.  But Sugar Live Build does
not use packaged activities, so is of limited use in helping with
Fedora.

Fedora has a slightly larger list of activities, and the list hasn't
been changed much for some time.  i.e. new activities have become
popular but haven't been added to Fedora.

A quick way to get the list of activities in Fedora is to start
Sugar on a Stick and iterate through /usr/share/sugar/activities,
and identifying the package names from them.

> These are just the activity packages themselves, to say nothing of the dependencies, but given that several of those even from that set were originally maintained by Fedora developers that as best I can tell are not active in Sugar efforts now (erikos, bkearney, callkalpa), it's probably more than enough.
