Thoughts on displaying 'Recent Package History' and 'Recent Bundle Deployments' on Group Activity page...

first, consider the fact that bundle deployment makes no sense on 
resources OTHER THAN platforms. So, to reduce confusion and/or 
complexity on that page, don't render the bundle deployments section 
unless you are viewing a platform.

Second, it probably solves itself if we come up with a new icon to 
represent a "package" versus a "bundle". Maybe for now just use a "file" 
icon (you know, like a piece of paper or something)??

Maybe weird is a bit harsh, but when we juxtapose the two sections reusing the Content Icon for both Bundle and Package elements it strikes me as a bit wierd.  See images 1 and 2 for what the empty display looks like and what the display looks like being a bit more populated.

There are still quite a few conversations to be had about customizable Groups Activity region as we continue to build that out.
