Hi rocket developpers and reserchers! I have receive email from three persons that would like to be project administrator of the rocketworkbench project. Ben Wheeler - be...@go... Geoff O'Callaghan - ge...@st... Duncan McDonald - du...@fa... If there aren't any other propositions, I propose that each of them expose shortly their interest in the project and that we make a choice together. I am here until christmas and then leave for a month. I would like to clear this issue before but can do it after if it is too quick. Chow -- Antoine Lefebvre ant...@po... |

Hi everybody, first of all i wish all of you a happy new years. Well, sorry, i miss= my own christmas deadline myself and did not get lots of time as i am actual= ly traveling and organising my wedding.... well, both Geoff and Duncan a= re seriously interested in the project and wish that one of them take th= e administration of the rocketworkbench web site. I would prefer if the decision come from you. Once done, i=B4ll update the status of your s= ourceforge account. Have a nice year. --=20 Antoine Lefebvre ant...@po... |

In general about the admin job, all candidates sound well qualified and enthusiastic. Many thanks to Antoine for setting the RWB project in the first place.

Hi, I'm happy to take it on, but whatever. FYI, there are only 7 members on the whole list today (http://sourceforge.net/project/memberlist.php?group_id=2296). Arocket is really the main area for discussion, conjecture, and gab fests and the Rocketworkbench list is ancillary to Arocket for more focused discussions. That is what I have seen over the course of Rocketworkbench anyway. Rocketworkbench is primarily a storage repostory for project info. It is a little different than the typical SF project with respect to the mailing list because it really grew out of Arocket. Thanks to Antoine for his hard work on Rocketworkbench and completion of CPropep, Grain Design, and Rockflight. I hope many more projects are completed!

Well I guess I missed the Christmas deadline! However, my interest in Rocketworkbench is to keep it going as an open source resource for both software and hardware for amateur rocketry. I have been working on (and blogging at Rocketworkbench) my biprop ignitor for the last year or so. = In 2005 I hope to add an open source altimeter project for rocket amateurs = at the site. This last year I have pretty much been maintaining the site, including a partial rebuild when about half of the files mysteriously disappeared. Fortunately I had back everything up! I really like the = idea of having a single web resource as opposed to eveeryone using their own web sites, so I am happy to contribute to Rocketworkbench.

Like Duncan, my goal is to keep rocketworkbench going as an open source resource for all. However, initially, I didn't see how the entire Biprop igniter project fits into the ideals of the rocketworkbench project as it is supposed to be for the development of rocket design software - some aspects of it does. See http://rocketworkbench.sourceforge.net/goal.phtml What I would like to see is the development of a design tools that integrate well to allow for rapid software based design/prototyping. Software based prototyping is worthless unless the results can be validated by actual testing - so rocketworkbench will need hardware testing.... Perhaps that's where the goals of projects like the Biprop igniter fits into things. ie. Hardware developed to provide unit testing for the software :-) Don't get me wrong - the Biprop igniter project is good stuff, I'm just conscious of the goals of the SF website - An open source software development website - and of the stated goals of the rocketworkbench project. I like the idea of a community based rocketry site, but I don't think SF.net is the place. I hope everyone had a great xmas/new year Cheers Geoff |

Hi Geoff and Everyone, Good point on the HW versus SW angle and it is worth discussing. First, although SF is strictly speaking a SW development forum, there are lots = of combined hardware/software projects (autopilot, robotics, R/C, etc). The ignitor will have (in the not too distant future!) a microcontroller = with code stored in flash and other avionic assemblies will undoubtedly have = both HW and SW so that fits reasonably well with SF. On the other hand there = is lots of rocket stuff that is purely mechanical but would still be open source. Furthermore, even purely mechanical designs need to be = documented and revision controlled, and CSV is very handy for that. Sourceforge = seems kind of convenient for all types of designs in my mind, but the most important point is that I would vastly prefer to keep all of Arockets community efforts in one place whether it be pure software for rocket development (simulation, propulsion, CFD, etc), HW/SW for avionic or electromechanical, or pure hardware. I guess the alternative to SF is to create a project area on Arocket that has CSV for version control.=20 What do you folks think? Geoff, from your email you seem to be of the = mind to keep Rocketworkbench SW only as far as I can see. Happy New Year to all, and may you complete all of the projects you = start this year!

I'm happy for the combo if a) SF doesn't care or a precedence has already been set and b) it's within the stated goals of the project. I was simply putting forward the documented project goals and the stated purpose of SF.net. If the goal needs to be extended then the community can decide. > Happy New Year to all, and may you complete all of the projects you start > this year! > That'd be nice :-) -goc- |
Thanks for helping keep SourceForge clean.
