Well, I just thought that if the name Wave came from Firefly, so should it's concertium.
To be clear, I'd take the task of reworking the standards by placing my current plans online and taking all the criticism I can. As for using the original standards, it's just because then I wasn't reworking the standards. As for Federation, I'd like that to be simalor to the current standard (since it's the architecture of PyOfWave). -- Adrian Cochrane [email protected] On Sun, 29 May 2011 12:54 +0200, "Thomas Wrobel" <[email protected]> wrote: > Like call it Moya then, from Farscape ;) > (hay, it did last longer....) > > On 29 May 2011 12:52, Paul Thomas <[email protected]> wrote: > > face palm. more firefly references...ominous :/ > > > > > > > > > > > > ________________________________ > > From: Adrian Cochrane <[email protected]> > > To: [email protected] > > Sent: Sun, 29 May, 2011 9:58:12 > > Subject: protocols > > > > avid Hearnden <[email protected]> Wed, May 25, 2011 at 8:36 AM > >> Reply-To: [email protected], [email protected] > >> To: wave-dev <[email protected]> > >> There is a technical roadmap (i.e., rich design docs etc, published > >> somewhere on the site - let me know if you can't find them) for a new > >> protocol that overcomes many of the issues with the current one, and works > >> much better with more advanced features (e.g. diff-on-open).
