that's where the joke is, that floss manuals cover software that should also run on windows
yes, you've always been a joker man, you know that
sorry i that seemed agressive, i just meant you're a reactionary force, cos don't document ardour, supercollider and others if they don't run on windblows ...
anyway i wouldn't read it
gute nacht!

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):
- 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.
