I think we definitely should document PDP/PiDIP and Gridflow as well.
Do you want to participate and help out? If there aren't any PDP or
Gridflow people joining in, then I think it makes the most sense to
focus on Gem since it is the most widespread.

Hi guys,
As the "facilitator" of this project, I will post a list of sprint
targets quite soon.
GEM section is definitely on my list, however I do want to keep to
things which are both included in PD-Extended and are cross platform.
For now, this excludes PDP and Gridflow. Maybe if someone wanted to
make
a separate section which includes installation/configuration info
(following the template in the Install chapters of the existing Pd
FLOSS
Manual), then a section on one of these might be relevant. But as
they
are both essentially Linux only, by virtue of either being
uncompilable
or nearly unusable on other platforms, I'd rather keep focus
someplace else.
As for GEM, I'd like to see some stuff on the following (in order of
priority):
1) Basic VJ mixer (2 x
[gemhead]-[pix_film]-[alpha]-[colorRGB]-[pix_texture]-[rectangle]
with
an alpha-crossfader)(+ platform specific codec info)
2) Live camera input (same as VJ mixer but with [pix_video], with
platform specific info on USB/firewire inputs--what works & what
doesn't)
3) VJ effects (using the various pix objects)
4) Basic 3D (that actually does something interesting, rather than
just
show a sphere or a cube)
5) Basic movement tracking w/ [pix_blob]
6) GEM/video optimization/troubleshooting tips (see Troubleshooting
section of existing Pd FLOSS Manual)(Chris Clepper, are you in the
house?)
I have some tutorial patches which could be used as the basis for
most
of this, let me know if you are interested.
Full target list coming soon, I'll make sure to include this GEM
section.
best,
Derek

Hey all,
I hope I am not jumping the gun or stepping on anyone's toes. I
just wanted to open up the discussion about what people are
planning on working on during the upcoming book sprint.
Currently, I am pretty open to topics, but I was thinking that
Gem/PDP/Gridflow could really use a section. There are lots of
examples for them, but they lack a good intro to the concepts.
I am in for a gem sprint.
marius.
