Oh, you're right -- we only use the wiki page once we want manual control
of all of the activity versions.  So "sugarlabs_activities" is used
during development, and "sugar_activity_group" is used when frozen.

So the question is "Since our config enables sugarlabs_activities, how
come we didn't get the latest versions of all of the activities?".

Peter, it looks like one of your commits changed this a few days ago.
See:

http://dev.laptop.org/git/projects/olpc-os-builder/commit/?h=f14-arm&id=d8d4cd017fde62ffbb7f83d0407722fed7ad5882

Which removed the [sugarlabs_activities] config definitions from
examples/f14-arm.ini, even though it left the module itself enabled.
(Without those definitions, the sugarlabs_activities code isn't going
to do anything.)

Thanks,

- Chris.
