I wouldn't expect eggs to be the bundle format. Bundles would typically include several eggs anyway, since we'd be including the dependencies. So, I'm guessing that an olpc_bundle command would create:

  MyCode.activity/
    eggs/
      MyCode-version.egg/...
      SomeDependencies-xxx.egg/...
    activity/
      activity.info # copied from MyCode/mycode/mycode.activity ?
      icon, localization...

Potentially activity.info could be created from metadata kept elsewhere. Or maybe not, I'm not sure. For instance, the "exec" key is something I think should be automatically generated (since there will be an up-front sys.path fixup to activate the eggs, then calling some function in MyCode). Maybe that's what sugar-activity-factory does?


Eggs sounds useful to package dependencies. We need to figure out how the sys.path fixup happens exactly.

sugar-activity-factory just start a dbus service that can create new instances of an activity.
