=== Specification ===
Sugar bundle should have METADATA file in the top directory(or in <some_name>/ directory) of .xo bundle. This file is in [http://docs.python.org/library/configparser.html INI] format which describes how to setup bundle.
METADATA file can have one or several sections(depends on content) that describe metadata fields of final entry(ies) in Journal and other data that could be useful for sugar(depends on content).

! Field

! Notes
|-
| ''entry''
| optional<br>(depends on content)
| defines access point within the bundle(e.g. index.html for library bundles)
|-
| ''mime_type''
| mandatory
| define MIME type for final Journal entry
|-
| ''uid''
| ignored
|-
| ''*''
| optional
| any [[Features/Plain_Query_Format#System_terms|system]], [[Features/Plain_Query_Format#Users_predefined_terms|users predefined]] and arbitrary Datastore field
|-
| ''*''
| optional
| any tag, depends on content(inherited from activity bundles etc.)
|-
|}
Any field in ''METADATA'' file can have ''_file'' suffix, in that case content of this field(substring w/o ''_file'' suffix) will be fetched from file inside of the bundle.

So if one user uploaded Journal object(any type - activity, activity object, content library etc.) to the web, another user can download/transfer-through-many-non-sugar-environments it and open in his sugar environment with keeping all metadata(he will get the same Journal entry).

We can also collect users object on public server like ASLO to have server like sharing feature.
