Yada yada yada. Could go on for a while, but I won't. Let's hear about you! :-D
Thanks Leo, this is a wonderful idea.
Here is my personal roadmap.
I'm interested in data emergence: how you can make people create metadata without knowing and without feeling like they are paying a tax in doing so.
Gump, to me, represents a way to create extremely high quality metadata about project development that would be tremendously complex/expensive for machines to do as a byproduct of applying the right amount of social pressure.
I'm lucky enough to be paid to do what I would do anyway and I plan to get involved directly with gump in a really short period, as soon as the infrastructure of our project that I'm building start to become more solid.
I personally think that bottom-up data emergence is the only way for the semantic web to come into existance: the top-down ontological might work in ivory towers but will never work in real life.
What this means in concrete, well, I still don't know, but I have the gut feeling that the dynamics around Gump will be extremely beneficial for what we are trying to achieve in a more global scale.
As well as it will be extremely beneficial as a across-programming-language-borders community unification tool.
I think Gump has *tremendous* potentials.
I plan to explore and research them in full details.
