Hi,


  >>> sys.path.append("/home/olpc/Activities/Browse.activity")
  >>> import webactivity
 
  >> So it works only on the XO ... interesting.

For Wikibrowse under Sugar 0.82, we asked the activity registry where
Browse was installed and added that path, but in 0.84 that registry
was removed without a replacement API being offered, so the only way I
could see to get it working was the ugly XO-specific thing.  Removing
APIs that are in use without fixing up activities that use them is not
very cool.  :/

- Chris.
