I also would like to integrate Skeleton in Etoys sometime.
It's a nice tool and give many new ways to make animation etc.

I have not looked at the code at all.

Is the license ok ?

There is not much documentation as far as I know.

We could add it and gradually expose it as it get documented and
tested for bugs etc.

I found an old discussion stating that it could be a nice extension to Etoys but the biggest issue being the slow loading of external code. I have to agree with that being a problem but I think we might reconsider just include it in the image as with Dr Geo.
