hi all

as we've decided i've created another mailing list for v2jam - 
simca-developers.

anne/lenno: do you wanna be on this (low trafic) list?
we gonna discuss here what are we gonna do about v2jam, wether or not 
we're on schedule etc.

post-interview notes.

1. we need another (secret) plan to backup the fake one we have got for 
obtaining money. the secret plan should be more clear from our - 
developers - point of view, but should at the same time remain 
non-public. phases and steps on this internal plan should correspond in 
to the vague points we've got on the funding application plan, so we 
can report about success in the end.

roughly the plan is:
  - make better plan (this week, artm -> madris, simon, via this list)
  - finish the todo list of gsimca v.0.6. - "the puritan release" (till 
the end of march, artm/simon)
  - come up with texts for UNESCO, lab's website, wondering people who 
don't understand what i'm talking about when i say "incapsulation" 
(artm -> madris, based on interview and discussions in this list. 
this/next week)
  - generate ideas / plan for the first GUI (part of gsimca v.0.8, "GUI 
release"). (till the end of march, madris with the help of artm)
  - split the development: simon starts to work on the first media 
objects (gsimca v.0.7), artm - on components/pages/clients framework 
(gsimca v.0.8)

2. about them names, let's be clear:

  - v2_jam is the v2_lab's research in media jamming.
  - simca is a software being developed as part of v2_jam. simca is a 
media-processing server.
  - i think it'll be fun to come up with some matching name for the 
client software. i have no ideas, only that it shouldn't sound at all 
like either "v2_jam" or "simca".
  - the phrase "the web of media processors" refers to the network of 
simca and client instances forming large distributed media processing 
pipeline. i find it fine sounding punch phrase :)

3. this "look into the flower" compilation of 60s-70s rare numbers from 
Blue Note is totally nuts :) i feel like i'm in a James Bond movie or 
something.

cheers,
artm
