hello pd world,
i have now come to the conclusion that FLOSS coding is just wasting my time, as i don't want to get abused by some dirty closed-source shameless bastards. so i won't be evolving this cool idea anymore:
SimSUI - a Simple SVG User Interface - http://osku.de/simsui
but as my first intention was to let it communicate with pd (add OSC to vanilla pd already!;), i would like to dedicate that small idea/code to pd(-list), my first open-source love...
i could say "do what ever you want with that (lousy) code", but as long as closed-source is not illegal, every one can do what ever they want with every code, so no use to say the obvious...
ask me again when the revolution starts! .andre
p.s. some ass holes has/will probably software patented the idea anyway, so why bother...
Because we need you.
Take a break. Then get back to work on your code soldier. Keep your chin up and stay on board for the big win.

yes sir... i couldn't resist the itch anyway :)

there is probably a bug in my code, clutter0.6 or nvidia closed-source drivers, that makes the first slider and background to "flicker" when you move a thumb while there is input coming from OSC... but as it seems to work fine on my debian eeepc (intel graphics) i don't care...
now where did i see that DIY touchscreen for eeepc :P

One benefit you might consider, is that you can develop your own project, and put it on your resume. There's no one better qualified to adapt your code to commercial software, than you.
Not that I've had any kind of professional success. but all that coding experience goes on my resume...

That looks like a very useful tool! People have tried various stabs
at his (gripd, xgui, etc) but I think your approach makes a lot of
sense. Using SVG means you can choose your tool to create the
interface, since it is an open standard.

That's a really great idea! Shame you don't want to continue developing it, but the fact that you released it as Free software means that other people can, so more power to you.
best,
Jamie
