[Testing] Bug huntin' saga: what versions of activities ship with G1G1?

[Mikus Grinbergs]

While that is a legitimate question, it does not pinpoint what 
version of an Activity a particular user has.  He might have 
installed a different customization, he might have run "software 
update", or due to a local error an available version of an Activity 
might have failed to be installed.  In my opinion the most reliable 
way is to look at Activities/foobar.activity/activity/activity.info.

Unfortunately, not all Activity authors have taken the trouble to 
update this file when they make changes to the Activity.  [And there 
have also been Activity authors who did not bother to create an 
"-number' for their .xo bundle's filename when they made changes to 
the Activity.]  Thus identifying the activity version is sometimes a 
guessing game.

What I have been using on my XOs is a script which shows the version 
number kept in Sugar's "activity registry" (this value is copied 
from the respective activity.info files).  [While working with Sugar 
0.82 and earlier, this script has not worked with Sugar 0.83.]
