 Replying to [comment:12 cscott]:

 Really? evince-olpc needs to be in the system, but I'm pretty sure Read is
 just a python activity like any other.

 The rest of your points I can't argue with. I still don't see the utility
 of marking Chat, Write, Record, or Paint as "core".  It seems that "core"
 activities should be only those that OLPC is actually unable to remove,
 for technical or legal reasons.

 Ideally, I'd like to get rid of /usr/share/activities/ altogether, thus
 simplifying that bit of Sugar considerably.
