Note, that the ./setup.py release has been removed from bundlebuilder -
so you need to use marco's release script.
It is not required to provide a NEWS file anymore. Feel free to keep a
NEWS file if you like, but please drop it from git if you are not
keeping it up to date.

Some general notes about sources (this is for example important when
packaging the activities for Fedora):
- get the permissions right (e.g. these should be non executable -> 644)
sugar-jukebox.noarch: E: script-without-shebang
/usr/share/sugar/activities/Jukebox.activity/NEWS
sugar-jukebox.noarch: E: script-without-shebang
/usr/share/sugar/activities/Jukebox.activity/jukeboxactivity.py
- provide a license file (COPYING file)
- make sure to have a license field in activity.info
http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Activity_bundles#.info_File_Format
- remove unnecessary files (e.g. empty AUTHORS files etc)
Feel free to add things here that i might have forgot.
Thanks,
Simon
