Week 13.142856 December 2010
Thanks to Peter we have had visualization of git commits. That can be seen in
here Now Nate has created a combined visualization of project commits and it is shown below.
We had a great group of students to start with - That group continued to thrive and perform even better.
Mentors Photo is shown below. these mentors are awesome - They not only excel technically but also willing to help others.
Alex and John are graduating. They have done great things for RCOS. We are going to miss them. Here they are - sharp and witty as ever.
Thanks to all of you - we had a great semester

This past Friday was the last week of our meeting this semester. Most of Students working at RCOS contributed substantially to open source software projects. Students care so much about each other and care about FOSS efforts, they go out of their way to show their progress. Please see Projects git commits visualization (This was mainly the work of the student mentor Peter Hajas ). Thanks to Tim Horton who video taped the talks. He has placed the talks here.
We had six presentations.
1) Peter Hajas described his mobile notifier beta release (appropriately called awesome apple jacks. Peter has demoed his system and it really looked awesome. Hope other users will be able to download his Mobile notifier app and use it in their IPhones. Please see here for further details.
2) Colin Sullivan and Adam Georgiou presented their talks on their Concert Sound Organizer. They have completely reorganized their back-end using model view controller. Colin also talked about backnone.js - Their talk and other things are found here. They are using Django for their development. You should see their java commit visualization - It has been voted one among the best by his peers.
3) Joe Dougherty talked about his Fire Management Solutions. He has almost most of the system working. He has used Qt and C++ for his software development. His software has an eager customer. He also talked about his data management schema. His talk and blogs may be found here.
4) Tim and Tom presented their awesome-wav project - They have a beta release and a test for the users to test their security of wav implementations. Please see here for further details. Their software release version 1 is impressive.
5) Anthony Loven presented his supybotui - a web user interface for configuring IRC chat bot. He has done substantial implementation - He has not pushed his code yet. He plans to release his code and software during this winter break. His Blog here has his final presentation and other details.
6) John Lee (and Thomas Alexander) talked about RPI wifi for Android. They have added printer queue display in their latest implementation. Though he could not demo his system, it is easy to follow what this group has accomplished. This group even managed to incorporate my comments (to provide technical details) in their new presentation. Their talk can be found here.
What can I say more to this wonderful group of students. May be I should ask them to part the red sea and climb mount Everest and implement enhancements to linux kernel! They may do that and more. Great job guys. Mentors and I want you all to succeed and our efforts are aimed at that. Again thanks for all your efforts and continue to do good work!
Happy Holidays and promote FOSS efforts during this winter break too!

Week 12, December 4, 2010
TGIF - for me these four letter have a different connotation - I look forward to Fridays so that I have a chance to interact with a vibrant, creative and enthusiastic group of students interested in Open Source Software efforts. I have to congratulate Nate (and Rob) for getting recognized for Ease at this blog post. At the penultimate week, the four groups of students gave final presentations of their projects. Thanks to Tim we have youtube videos of the presented talks.
1. Cihan Caglayan gave her update and final presentation on RCOS Sahana Eden for empowering local artisans. She has a design document for the three modules that will be essential for her system. She plans to complete the project during winter break. Here is a link to her blog post. Below is her presentation (in you tube)
2. John McMaster gave his final (really his last presentation as he is graduating a semester early) on UVNet Universal Decompiler. He has made substantial progress on GUI, Python API, streamlining unit tests, modularizing his code for plugins and he is writing a paper. John has awesome talents with reverse engineering and decompiling Please look at his blog for further details. RCOS (and in particular the current co-director) is going to miss the wisdom of John McM. John's talk may be found in this youtube.
3. Nate gave his final presentation on Ease. Nate has accomplished a great deal and Ease is gaining an active set of users. It goes without saying that Nate gave his presentation in Ease. The fact that Ease is translated into many languages is itself a testimony to his work. Nates blog gives further details. (You may also want to look at his code page.) Nate is still working to squash a few bugs and make further enhancements. Nate's talk may be found in this youtube link.
4. Alex and Joe gave their presentation on Touch of Math. As usual their presentation is awesome. Joe gave a demo of their system in a pc browser and IPhone (I have the audacity to ask for it to run in IPad - Naturally it will take them a few seconds to make it run in IPad). Their blog describes greater details. Joe's presentation may be found in this youtube video.
I sit and watch in jaw dropping amazement the level of participation and achievement A tip of my (invisible) hat to every one who presented these wonderful talks (and students who asked intelligent questions and suggestions) and to Tim Horton an unassuming student who took the videos. Based on this I can certainly predict that the future looks bright! As I finish typing this blog, I wish the outside world (at least people at RPI) appreciate the level of commitment and work of these young students.
