If developers wish to get packages/updates included in the stream, they must first be committed to joyride. After successful testing in joyride, file an inclusion request on the corresponding trac ticket. Approval will come from release engineering before the package is included in the stream.

Requests from Nepal via Bryan

1. Need to be able to launch activities such as Scratch, EToys, Pippy,
etc. by clicking on a hyperlink in browse. The activity wouldn't run in
the browser. We need this functionality in order to effectively use
Moodle in our schools.

Here's the ticket I opened on the
http://dev.laptop.org/ticket/6958

2. Need to be able to remove activities via the GUI, including installed
activities, to make room for new ones. We are working on Offline Moodle
activity bundles for courses. Each course will be subdivided into weekly
modules. these modules will quickly fill up the ssd. kids will need a
way to remove activities themselves to make room for new ones.
