Glancer BoF – Todo

Just finished a BoF on Glancer. It was pretty good actually. About 5 people who are actually interested in contributing to Glancer right away – Vivek and Jatin from Hubli, Pradeepto and Karthick from Bangalore and of course; Tarique Sani.

We discussed and here’s the todo:

  • Put the code on SF – I am doing this next week
  • Messaging Module
  • Conference guide printing options – short, detailed etc
  • More jazz to the UI
  • Optimization – loading and using
  • Compatibility issues
  • RSS Integration
  • Result paging so that we fetch only as many records as this screen can display
  • Calendar view for Scheduling
  • Bug with 0 score (does not show up people on the screen if score is 0)
  • How to integrate Glancer with other conferences
  • Contact other conferences and see if they are interested in Glancer
  • Admin interface?
  • Bridge type webservices for integration with other conferences and sync’ing?
  • System Admin / Hacker guide on installation and usage
  • Wiki for documentation
  • SourceForge Forum
  • Mobile version
  • Desktop version
  • Photo upload feature
  • Port the backend to other technologies – Java / .Net etc
  • Port the frontend to AJAX

We actually also hacked up the code a bit to auto match people when you click on the “Friend Finder” button. Earlier it showed a blank map, now it would show the people who match you by default.

I am excited!
