Projects update
So, I did some thinking last week and decided on projects I'm going to be working on over the next quarter.
I'm going to be spending time working on:
- Adding features to RubyCocoa in order to make prototyping easier, plus generation of ObjC skeleton code from RC prototype projects.
- Determine best HTTP server model for integrating ImageUnits for fast image transforms (choosing between single proc with libevent multiplexing between active sockets, a libevent multiplexer that talks over FCGI-like protocol to rendering engines in a pool of separate processes, and a traditional apache install that hooks in ImageUnits as an apache module).
- Framework to enable quick generation of political issue ads (thank you CoreVideo!).
I picked three projects, one involving open source, one involving commercial development, and one involving political/nonprofit work. I've been keeping in touch lately with a lot of ex-Amazon folks who have been working in the political/nonprofit sector, and there's a lot of good stuff going on right now. Hopefully, I'll have more news on the political front in coming weeks, if some of these projects pan out.
