* Activities (mostly not native sugar activities) could use only one library e.g. activity could use only ''ds'' library thus do not fetch additional dependencies like telepathy (via ''collab'') and gtk+ (via ''gui'').

'''Activity'''<br>Regular activities would not use glucose directly, rather they would only access glucose through the Polyol level.<br>There is no need to code special activities, the sugar-toolkit API will be preserved, and activity developers will benefit because Polyol will support the recent sugar-toolkit API, e.g., they could use the new toolbars design even on Sugar 0.82.
