I have decided to set up this page as my log for the google summer of code project, formalising the protocol for inkboard communication and converting the library to pedro.

Predicted TimeLine

• Deliverable 1 - Friday, 30th June

  Extend and finalise the initial draft of the protocol specification started by David Yip (/src/jabber_whiteboard/protocol/protocol.tex), intergrating as much of the standard protocol underdevelopment at http://wiki.jabber.org/index.php/Psi_Whiteboarding which must include the following

  • Specification for conflict resolution
  • Use Case for peer to peer and Multi User Chat session establishment
  • Use Case for communication of edits between sessions
  • Listing of valid message types
  • State transition diagram of Inkboard Clients

• Deliverable 2 - Friday, 14th July

  Develop and finalise the XML schema that is implemented by the inkboard clients, this will define the valid message types that may be transferred

• Deliverable 3 - Friday 28th July

  A basic inkboard client developed using the perdo XMPP client, must be stable enough to be integrated with the trunk, that contains at least the following

  • Initialisation and Destruction of multi user and peer to peer session
  • Basic communication of changes between documents

• Final Deliverable - Monday 21th August

  End of Summer of Code project, a fully stable inkboard intergrated into the inkscape trunk, ready for inclusion in the release of .45, features to include:

  • Conflict Resolution
  • Local Undo mechanism

Project Log

I have finished uni and can start working full time on the protocol / lib conversion. We have decided to integrate the whiteboard gui into the pedro gui. I am starting my work with adding the whiteboard gui into pedro, and defining groupchat and peer to peer initialisation protocol
