And here are the guidelines:

http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/SugarActivityGuidelines

A couple of things about them:

* For Fructose activities you don't need to get the source from git, 
tarballs are available at the url Simon posted.
* Translation packaging is not explained in the guidelines, you can see 
how it's done in the journal. Though I'd really like to figure out a 
more automatic way to do it (perhaps we can add another macro to 
sugar-toolkit to deal with it?)

I'd suggest to start from chat, log, calculate, terminal and pippy. 
Those does not have dependencies issues.

If you want to join #sugar on freenode we can help you out with any 
problem you run into (or feel free to use this mailing list if you prefer).

Cheers,
