Greetings Andrew and company,
I would like to thank you for providing an iChat connection to the
NOVA WO group last night. I know that I was ask for a lot, but the
first rule of academic funding does state that those who don't ask
mostly like do not receive. I have to say you have an impressive
bunch, and I could only wish that my colleagues at Texas Tech saw
the wisdom in participating with such groups.
One thing we might do to improve the thing for next time is if there
are two laptops, to have one facing the presenter with its speakers
on, and the other facing a person in the audience whom I can text
questions to. I can certainly relate to Tom's notion about
selection on programmers. While I have posted an Academic Web
Objects wiki with a tutorial from a database class perspective (http://venus.cs.ttu.edu/groups/webobjects/
) , teaching the design patterns that are exemplified by WO seems to
escape the faculty.
There is one paper with references to others that may be useful to
Tom and others. It is posted at (https://venus.cs.ttu.edu/svn/iFITSDocuments/FIREmash/trunk/currentVersion/bridging.pdf
), referenced on the Sky Raider Project, and is paper I wrote
referencing a project that used WO, Project Wonder's ERX Keys and
Google Web Toolkit. There is a subsequent paper/ project that
shows integration with multiple WO apps via the mashup that is far
from ready. I hope to get it ready before mid April.
Of course, one of the things I wish still existed was the old
Marratech teleconferencing software with its "Brady Bunch"
conference capabilities so that the rest of the WO community could
use it similar to what we were trying last night. Believe it or
not, it was true blessing for me to participate with a collection of
WO developers last night. I probably should have done it in one of
my professors offices just to promote collective hope. I hope
next time I can borrow and use one of my professors echo canceling
microphones with good speakers and get a number of students to
participate in the same room. At least there would be hope that
some place could produce programmers who can use WO.
Later,
