NIce document, thanks. I will read it and get back in a few days.

In the meantime I installed the FreeCell Activity (does Sugar has any better 
way of installing activities than sugar-install-bundle from command line? 
there should be some way to install from Browser or a "manager activity"). 

Running it I realized the Etoys panel (The Stop and Quit and Keep buttons) 
already must have some interaction  with Activity API, I will look at that 
code too.
