=== Plugin Support ===

A number of activities, notably [[http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Activities/TurtleArt#Plugins|Turtle Art]], are supporting plugins--the ability to extend features by downloading additional modules. However, [[http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Activities/TurtleArt#How_to_install_a_plugin|the mechanism for installing plugins]] is anything but friendly. It would be nice to design a uniform plugin bundle type and modify the activity installer to recognize this new type. Caveats include dependencies -- presumably the plugin would take care of that -- and version control -- plugins are often incumbent upon a specific version of an activity. [http://activities.sugarlabs.org ASLO hosting]] should also be considered.
