Activity Backward Compatibility (was re: Re: joyride 2128 smoketest)

[Greg Smith]

Hi Marco,

8.2.0 draft release notes are at:
http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Release_Notes/8.2.0

We have this section:
http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Release_Notes/8.2.0#Activity_Incompatibilities

so you could make a new section next to that.

Any reviews, edits or additions welcome.

Thanks,

Greg S
