[Sugar-devel] [FEATURE] Automatic activity updates

[Daniel Narvaez]

Hi,

we are going to code freeze on Sep 4, and that's when it would also
probably make sense to branch master. Which is a  bit later than you would
like to land it.

Though I wonder if we should consider this feature for 0.100 since

* There is still a considerable amount of time left. Freeze dates seems to
be compatible with your goals.
* Part of the work seems to be cleaning up the existing mess.
* A few of the features we planned for 0.100 seems a bit stalled (3g
modems, multiple journal selection, multiple home views).
* The web activities work, which is where most of the changes are going, is
not affecting much the existing code.

Ideally we would have discussed this earlier but pragmatically I don't see
strong reasons to keep this code out of tree until the next release.
