Hi Dominik,
I think I can speak for most if not all of the participants of the Rave
Hackathon that we enjoyed having you and Sten presenting the work you've done on
the ROLE project and especially the potential alignment and contributions to
Rave! I for one definitely look forward to such contributions and further
collaboration/participation of you and the ROLE team with the Rave project.
The IWC feature you showed is very promising and looks like a very good fit for
Rave.
How this can be integrated, what exact amount of code is involved, how the
license and copyright requirements (on both sides) can be met, etc. is a bit
difficult to assess upfront, at least to me it is :)
As I know you got a trunk build of Rave working now, it would be great if you
can maybe try to get the IWC feature to work with Rave trunk and provide us with
an example (patch) to try out ourselves.
And possibly others here have time and interest to chime in and work together
with you on this.
Any takers?
Kind regards,
Ate

Hi all,
after a nice Apache Rave Hackathon in Utrecht (thanks for having us there), I'd
like to propose an extension for multi-user/browser interwidget communication
for contribution to Rave, specifically referring to Epic RAVE-25. Respective
code is already FLOSS and has been developed in the context of the EU project
ROLE (Responsive Open Learning Environments; http://role-project.eu).
The slidedeck of our presentation in Utrecht is available from
http://www.slideshare.net/DominikRenzel/role-technologies-a-possible-contribution-to-apache-rave,
on slide 14 you find a compilation of online resources, including documentation,
demonstration, and code.
My next step would be to find a reasonable integration into the Apache Rave code
base, then create a respective issue (probably of type "story"; related to Epic
RAVE-25) and attach a patch to it.
Would that be acceptable? I'd be glad to hear your opinions.
Cheers,
Dominik
