Hi Thomas and Wiebe,

Thanks so much for your interest in the LiveSupport project. The team is
in the final phases of development, working on a number of final tasks,
among them integrating the graphical user interfaces (both HTML and C++).
We have set our deadline for the 1.0 release as Feb. 28 (which is within
your six-week deadline, Wiebe). In order to meet this deadline,
LiveSupport 1.0 may have to axe some minor functionality. We'll keep you
posted on that.

In the meantime, please feel free to browse through the LiveSupport CVS,
which can be viewed through the web at:
http://netfinity-5.mdlf.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/livesupport/

Project technical documentation can be found here:
http://livesupport.campware.org/public_html/doc/

We'd love to have you involved with the project as alpha/beta testers.
We've already have one bug finder/alpha tester, fransman, who has been
regularly posting bugs to the LiveSupport bugbase. To browse the bugbase,
visit this address:
http://bugs.campware.org

and sign up for an account. Then you can see not only bugs, but also
feature requests as well.

We'll be glad to answer any questions and guide you along the way as well.
This list would be the best way of communicating with the LiveSupport
developers. You can do that by visiting this address:
http://sympa.mdlf.org/wws/subrequest/livesupport-dev

Once on the list, it's useful to know who does what. The LiveSupport team
is made up of:

Developers:
Akos Maroy (C++ client and scheduler development, lead developer)
Ferenc Gerlits (C++ scheduler development, integration)
Tomas Hlava (PHP-based Storage Server, Network Server, Authentication)
Sebastian Goebel (HTML UI integration, Smarty templating)
Nadine Kokott (HTML UI integration)
Michael Aschauer (Installer CD)

User Interface:
Parsons School of Design, Digital Design Department
Sangita Shah
Charles Truett
Turi McKinley
Catalin Lazia
Kunal Jain
Colleen Macklin

Radio guru:
Robert Klajn, B92 Belgrade

Project management:
Micz Flor (project manager)
Douglas Arellanes
Sava Tatic


Beta testing:
fransman (whose name I have yet to decipher)




Hope this helps,


douglas

Hi there.



Great project.

We need it badly. Any chance of a (more or less) stable release within the
next 6 weeks?



I'll explain my question!

I am working with WorldCom Foundation (not to be confused with MCI
Worldcom), a non-profit organisation involved in communication projects,
especially in developing countries.

We are currently working on a huge project to support independant media
(radio) in the DRC (Congo). For this project we need a playout system.
After some years working with commercial (MS Windows based) playout
systems, we have decided to go open source (I presume I don't need to
explain why).



Your project looks very promising. I haven't seen all of it, but I have
the feeling your project would fullfill most of the requirements.



As usual projects like ours have there own dynamics. The first mission is
planned for somewhere at the and of March.



Is there any chance to get it working before that? It should be a
realistic one, because we can not invest our precious time in a system
that in the end will turn out to be unstable.



If so, we on the other hand, will use all our resources to help you get it
done. I am f.i. a php programmer and web developer (not very much into C)
but maybe I could do something.



Hope to hear from you asap.



Cheers!



Wiebe de Wolf
