Hi Louise:

I have run this, there are some (spotty) docs in bonobo-activation/docs
that discuss the query format.

An example:

-s "repo_ids.has('IDL:CosNaming/NamingContext:1.0') "

Unfortunately my system gives errors at the moment, my activation seems
broken, so until I can rebuild, I can't go much further than this.
