I am willing to write the code for this. Is a patch to this effect likely to get accepted? Is there a public source repository or other good thing or are hackers just extracting python from the .deb and using diff?
You can post any package you want to extras-devel (that's what I did with my clock plugin). As for the source - I believe there is a public source repository, but why not just look at the installed python files (seeing as they are not compiled)? The clocks are in /usr/lib/advanced-clock-plugin/clocks; take a look at them and write your own versions.
