[sugar] code contributions to Sugar (was Re: Sugar Clock)

[David Farning]

A good first towards solving this challenge is developing a project level self awareness of the different types of decisions we make.
1. Pedagogical 
2. Technical
3. Political
 
As a general rule we should strive to make decisions base on their pedagogical soundness, technical merit, and political expediency; In that order.  I am not sure how to implement this. Maybe they should be stated project values?
thanks

Anybody has ideas about how we could improve this? One thing that may help is the recent refactoring that Marco made in the shell. Adding a clock widget to the frame is now a matter of dropping a .py file in the extensions/deviceicon directory. What else needs to happen?
