I have tested for firefox only. For both firefox-2 and firefox-3 it works
well. I have used my own svg file so I dont get any problem regarding icon.
Its really easy to make it work. I have tried to make the  xo bundle  from
those stuffs . The steps I did was
1)Sugarize the  firefox
2) Copy entire firefox into firefox.activitity/bin
3) change  the content of sugarfirefox (exec /home/firefox/firefox) to (exec
./firefox/firefox)
4) Zip the entire firefox.activity folder to firefox.xo
When I install  this firefox.xo activity with sugar-install-bundle firefox
activity get installed, however, it does not lunch firefox properly. Is that
sensible way to make XO activities?

Regards,
Surendra
