Hallo!

Maybe some people can give more feature requests which could be
implemented within the google summer of code project.

So that in the end we might have something that someone (Hans,
Miller, IEM ?) can propose to google.

I can be the mentor organization, but I'll need help with the
proposal. I am more than a bit overloaded these days.

For pd-vanilla I guess it is hard to make proposals, because (as
tim said) we don't know what miller would accept - so it would be
nice if miller could say something to that !

Some proposals:

• GEM:

make multiple windows possible (also no window) (and threaded GEM)

That sounds good.

• GEM:

code optimizing (SSE2, MMX)

I think it's already well optimized AFAIK.

• GEM:

firewire in/output, better recording of GEM output

Also good.

• PDa: (Chris McCormick)

porting latest Pd to PDAs (so updating Günters PDa) (patches back to Miller that make it possible to build regular Pd
with no floats)

My bro and I have been tossing around a Palm port of PDa...

• Buildsystem:

rework of the pd-extended buildsystem, deb, rpm packages, integration of more externals (flext, GEM, ...), same support for all major platforms

Probably not sexy enough for a summer of code project, but would be
nice to have done.

• pd-lib

making a pd-core lib (see http://lists.puredata.info/pipermail/pd- dev/2006-01/005857.html) restructure all the externals in libraries and not by name (see
also thread above)

I like that too.

More ideas ?

Looking at things from a more basic level, you can come up with a
more direct solution... It may sound small in theory, but it in
practice, it can change entire economies. - Amy Smith
