Looks alright ... almost ... Personally, I would not create new
syndicator but rather get one from the Factory/Components. Also I would
probably try to avoid having to do anything with the syndicator directly
at all, but use the ActivationCommand instead.

Well, that's nice but not saying much. What is the difference between
such user on the author and on public? Is there any difference?
My best guess is that the user used to activate doesn't see all the
subnodes of the activated user node and therefore can't activate all of
them. Are you executing this piece of code in system context?

As far as I can tell from the export there is only one group assigned,
but as to whether this is expected or not, it's up to you to know. Is
this the uuid of the group you have assigned? If so then that info was
not lost during activation and you need to look for the problem
elsewhere.
