FWIW, Sugar + activities are still somewhat tightly coupled, as Sugar
and the underlying OS API are changing. As long as that is true, to
maintain an activity to a good standard, you have to keep an eye on
devel@ and/or sugar-devel at .

My rule of thumb is to try and keep people together -- recommending
filters sometimes -- until the traffic gets so heavy *and* a distinct
subcommunity can be split off. IMHO neither is true here (yet!).

The flip side is that offering a new ml to a small/medium sized group
is a great way to *kill* that group. It is an excellent troll mgmt
strategy.

cheers,
