/**
 * Contextual information can be, from the user's point of view, divided
 * into three aspects - "who am I?", "where am I?" (what are my surroundings?)
 * and "what am I doing?".
 *
 * Activities deal with the last one - "what am I doing?". The current activity
 * refers to what the user is doing at the moment, while the other activities represent
 * things that he/she was doing before, and probably will be doing again.
 *
 * Activity is an abstract concept whose meaning can differ from one user to another.
 * Typical examples of activities are "developing a KDE project", "studying the
 * 19th century art", "composing music", "lazing on a Sunday afternoon" etc.
 *
 * Every activity can have applications, documents, or other types of resources
 * assigned to it.
 *
 * KActivityConsumer provides an entry-level API for supporting activities in an
 * application - to react to the changes to the current activity as well as
 * registering the resources with its windows.
 *
 * Resource can be anything that is identifiable by an URI (for example,
 * a local file or a web page)
