Summary

Share sugar datastore (Journal) objects on a standalone server.

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)
Server should return object bundle if web client is Browse and plain Journal entries otherwise (for non-sugar users)

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

depends on Features/Object Bundles
Choose/adapt web framework

How To Test

Create a new Turtle Art 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.
