Hello, I apologise for the inactivity for the past few days. I am now in Pune and finished the initial procedures for joining RH. I can work regularly from now. I will start off with the revised to-dos starting from getting beacon in fedora. I just had a discussion with Nandeep about making having beacon in fedora priority #1. He agreed too in his mail of which I am pasting a snippet here (with his permission) to give you an idea of what will be up on his agenda. So far the idea is to have me concentrate on getting beacon integrated with FAS, Zikula etc. while he works on core beacon improvements and adds more features to make it really usable. "So after lots of people jumping in and out of this project and lukewarm response, I think the best way to roll this out is as a standalone product firmly deployed somewhere. For a proper end user product which users can employ to their benefits we need a cloud set-up pretty much like what Google Docs has to offer. For this I can think of the following core features that are absolutely essential for a release (these are technical mostly): 1. Copy paste handling to prevent crappy HTML generation. 2. Revision history and being able to revert back to other revisions 3. Undo redo stack 4. Be able to add media like pictures. 5. File browser for documents 6. Directly related to above point: an account system like Google Docs so per user cloud can exist. (For your Fedora system as mentioned, it can be FAS) 7. Be able to download the file in various formats (publican, you already have some work done on it). Now we have to decide how much of this to implement within your GSoC period or whatever it is that your revised schedule allows." The last line also made me wonder if my deliverables for GSoC have changed. It would be very convenient for me to know what is my to-do from GSoC perspective. I am not limiting this project till SoC and will make sure I work on it till it is in production use but knowing what is expected for SoC can help me order the tasks accordingly.
