Comment(by erikb):

 Replying to [comment:4 marco]:
 > There are no *new* rules for /tmp. Files in /tmp are basically stored in
 RAM (and have been for a while).

 Let me rephrase: what has changed in sugar so that this line of code no
 longer works?

 Replying to [comment:4 marco]:
 > What files are you storing in that directory? It's very likely that you
 want to use Activity get_activity_root instead.

 At start of the activity, I create "self.tempPath", and it is into this
 location that I save copies of all media that comes into the activity
 (photos from camera, photos from the mesh).  When write_file is called, I
 use these paths to save data to the datastore.

 We've assumed rainbow would come into play before FRS, so we've not
 worried about checking if my filenames are unique.  We also don't clean up
 after ourselves because we assumed Rainbow handle that as well.

 Advise.  Thanks!
