[Sugar-devel] Adding pybox2d to Sugar platform?

[Gonzalo Odiard]

+1 to include pybox2d in the platform


 I am on the fence about this one only because your criteria for

There are two points to think about:
* pybox2d includes binaries, then if we want include in every activity the
binaries for all
the architectures, is difficult, the activity is bigger, etc.
* what is the stability of sprite or any activity we want promote to a
common place?
