Detailed Description
Let users store sugar objects on standalone server. So, users can share theirs objects for broad audience.
The idea is keeping this feature as simple as possible from Shell point of view.
- utilize Browse for browsing/download/upload(?)
- minimal changes in Shell or even nothing(use Browse in all cases)
Benefit to Sugar
Storing objects on a server, user shouldn't be online all time to share objects for other users. Users can treat server as a standalone additional storage as well.
Scope
- Shell code
- fix issues related to name mangling of Journal objects after uploading/downloading
- keep objects DS metadata while transfering between user-server-user
- after user-server-user session object on target box should be treated in the same way like object on source box
- Choosing/coding web engine
How To Test
- Create a new TurtleArt activity
- Upload the new entry to the SL wiki using Browse
- Use Browse to download the entry back to Journal
- Resume it from Journal
This should ideally work for all Activities, then folks can actually start creating and distributing content/activities directly using Sugar, for other Sugar users.
