Description
On NC13.02, Circles 0.13.6, new circles are being notified to all users but there is no Activity listed for this action. We have only
On events happening in a Circle you belong
Any important event in a Circle you are moderating
- so (a) what setting controls the "circle has been created" notification and (b) shouldn't it be a separate activity option and (c) does it make sense to tell every user that a new circle has been created anyway?

Research direction
Review the notification and activity behavior described in issue #204, then inspect linked pull request #229 for the work already underway. Done means the setting controlling new-circle notifications is identified or implemented, the separate activity option is addressed, and the decision about notifying all users is documented or reflected in the behavior.
