Added four new new activities; roller skiing (classic), roller skiing (skate), 
cross-country skiing (classic) and cross-country skiing (skate).

Changed the activity 'skiing' to 'alpine skiing'.

This is fine with me but don't delete skiing.  Simply add alpine skiing.  Most 
american's don't prefix the sport with alpine.

I agree, I'm keeping skiing (or we change to "skiing (alpine)").

Also, we should eventually translate this (it won't show up in auto-completion 
for other languages, as of now).

Rodrigo D.,I see you have created a new revision with the new activities added. 
That's great. Looking forward to the next update.

But again, I think you should specify skiing. In Norway, using the word skiing 
would be considered vague, with people asking you to specify. Maybe 'downhill 
skiing' is a better term than 'alpine skiing' when it comes to Americans? 
'skiing', I think (as a Norwegian), isn't specific enough.
