Comment:

 As a first step for this, I resurrected the video-chat activity. I updated
 it to use new sugar's API. The activity is now runnable from XO's but we
 need upgraded packages of the AV stack to be able to really test it.

 Now we have to think about how we want to integrate audio/video in Sugar.
 If we don't want to have the activity launched to be able to receive
 calls, PS will have to announce the AV capabilities (probably only if the
 activity is installed).

 I'd like to get rid of the buddy list in the video-chat-activity so we'll
 initiate calls using the invitations UI. Maybe a "Call" entry in the mesh
 view would be good too.
 Anyway, we need to be able to check in sugar if a Buddy has the AV
 capability. Maybe using a special buddy properties?

 CCing Marco and Eben as this discussion raise some sugar and UI questions.
