Developers -- When you use an activity and there's something you don't like... what do you do?
- Ignore it
- Tell the activity's dev about it
- File a proper bug report for it
- Fix it locally
- Make a patch for it
- git push
The activity co-op is for developers who, when they find something they don't like about their own system, want to immediately fix and upstream their changes.
The current incarnation of this idea is "Brian's Script", which is a structured list of some activity repositories on dev.laptop.org, and a script for making symlinks so the git repositories show up as usable activities in sugar.
This assumes a clean install with no activities.
It also assumes the activities in the repository are using relative file locations for stuff in their own/other activities and absolute file locations for things outside of their activity (not other activities).
