[IAEP] Google Art Project

[Walter Bender]

FWIW, we have a standing offer from the Boston Museum of Fine Arts to
put together a native Sugar activity around 100 images from their
collection, We can not only do an end-run around the Flash issue but
we can also let the children incorporate these images into their own
work. See http://bugs.sugarlabs.org/ticket/1117
