When we ported sugar to Gtk3 we removed the support of the fields
exec and service_name due they were deprecated for a long time [1].
But this is still a problem in deployments, and we already added
compatibility for the service_name field.
Here [3] there is a long thred were we discussed this issue.

When we implemented read max_participants from activity.info [1]
we changed the default value of max_participants, from 0 to 1.
Before, was responsability of the activities set max_participants == 1,
when the activity not implemented collaboration.
This change make the default backwards compatible.

As part of an effort to "honor" max_participants, this patch supports setting
max_participants in activity.info, thus making it available in the bundle.
By default, if it is not set in the bundle, the previous behavior persists.
In support of this change, a cache of Activity bundles is
maintained. The goal is to eliminate unnecessary calls to the file
system.
This field can be used by activities that need to be restricted to a
single open instance. Usage is:
single_instance = yes
jarabe/model/shell.py has been modified look for this field in a
separate patch to Sugar.
Together these two patches constitute the implementation of Sugar
feature Launch Limits [1]

While we deprecated service_name a long time ago, still there are activities
using it, and is a source of frequent problems.

Share get_installation_time() between all bundle types so that it works
with content bundles.
Add get_tags() stub, this is called by Sugar.
Remove unused fields: l10n, category, subcategory, etc.
We remove support for running OLPC's content bundle indexer.
This is assumed to go away now that Sugar will support content bundles
as first-class objects.
Some minor behavioural fixes and cleanups.
This now implements http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Content_bundles
and when care is taken to include all the fields required by old
Sugar versions, there is no change in compatibility of existing or
new content bundles.
Required for http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Features/Content_support
The new bundle helpers were being auto-loaded with sugar3.bundle due
to their placement in __init__.py. This was causing Gi to be imported,
breaking GTK2 activity launches.
Move the helpers to a dedicated module.
The bundle API is a bit confusing and inconsistent. Fix up the
ActivityBundle and ContentBundle classes to be more consistent and to
work with the ongoing improvements being made in bundleregistry.
When activity bundles are loaded, the activity name and summary are
pulled from an activity.linfo file that is associated with
locale. However, sometimes locale, which uses $LANG has been
superceded by $LANGUAGE as set in
extensions/cpsection/languages/model.py. This patch uses the same
algorithm as gettext.py to find activity.linfo
This problem is seen on the .AU systems which use en_AU for locale and
en_GB for LANGUAGE.
In the Journal, CellRendererActivityIcon is calling its do_render
method after the temporal file is removed. This is because we wrap
the icon path in a TempFilePath to control its deletion, but as we
don't maintain any reference to it, its __del__ method deletes the
temporal file.
Note that returning the path directly has one disadventage: the
temporal file is left in /tmp .
As a comment in the get_icon method of ActivityBundle say, ideally we
should return the icon data. But that implies a major change in the
Journal model and views, and in the CellRendererIcon class.
