Comment:

 Was directed to trac by forum user Hugo.  I'm a newbie and rather than
 opening a new ticket I'll comment on this one since this seems to have
 been accepted as an enhancement.  Not sure if my input is considered a
 work-around or partial fix but here goes.  To save typing if you could
 just look at my forum post that would be swell.

 thereof?replies=6#post-3673446

 what would be great is if there could be a way in the BP settings to
 configure these settings such that if the defaults are unsuitable they
 could be changed.  Things needing to be configurable would be the "358" in
 $excerpt_length in bp-activity-filters.php and $latest_update in bp-
 avitity-template.php and the $length (225) and 'ending' ([...]) in bp-
 core-template.php.  That way users could have control over the activity
 stream without having to mess with the core files

 hope this helps
