Hi Daniel,<br>
<br>
What I think we need is a list of all APIs relevant to activity<br>
developers (maybe libraries too?). You can parse it however you want.<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>The two resources we do have, that I know of, are:</div><div><br></div><div>1. <a href="http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Sugar_Almanac">http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Sugar_Almanac</a><br>
</div><div>2. <a href="http://wiki.laptop.org/go/API_reference">http://wiki.laptop.org/go/API_reference</a></div><div><br></div><div>Neither, it seems, is complete, but I think they are being actively worked on. I think our ability to adequately predict and/or prevent breakage will improve quite a bit over the next few releases, when a) APIs are better documented in the first place (which also gives us obvious places to indicate future changes, additions, and deprecations) and b) fewer pieces of the system need to change at once, lowering the number of variables involved.</div>

We need a list of anything that might "break" an activity. Give us<br>
whatever you have, even if its not the full story. Hopefully we can put<br>
together the full puzzle one piece at a time.<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
