Are you referring to Gabriel Eirea's message

I didn't make that change, I don't know the history.  As the
Activities page acts as the fallback for the Sugar control panel's
Software update in 8.2.x, I believe it would be bad if it listed lots
of activities.

Gabriel, now that http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Activities prominently
points users to a.sl.o, how is that working out?
Someone removed the Activities/translations bar from this page, feel
free to add it back and/or to update the Spanish-language
http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Actividades to point to a.sl.o.

I'm curious, is the OLPC's Browse's home localized in Spanish?  I
suspect it is not, despite the sophisticated multilingual templating
system in 8.2.x that gets re-run on each collection download to
rebuild the home page.
