Comment:

 I've just tried this out in the latest build, and it doesn't appear to be
 representing things accurately.  It appears as though it's using some kind
 of relative scale, because the size of each wedge decreases by a
 significant amount every time a new activity is opened.  Moreover, in some
 cases they decreased in size so much that the "empty region" remained the
 same size it was before I launched the new activity in the first place.

 This eliminates the meaning of the ring, which is supposed to represent an
 absolute limit on the number of activities that can be opened.  Resizing
 the existing wedges doesn't make sense in this model.
