[Proposal Draft]BlueSky-Wish to ADD
Hello, everyone!
Now, we are going to move our project BlueSky (Blue Sky Distance
Collaboration
System) to Apache Incubator for future development. Its aim is to make
people under the sky to communicate and share resources with each other
more easily. When, the system is employed, users can communicated via
audio/video(computer screen also included) and text at the same time.
In other words, Multi-Object Multimedia capable makes the system more
vivid and glamorous. Cosmic Resource Share & Management System is also
included. It provides unique portal for users to share resources(such as
multi-object multimedia course ware). It's proposal is at
http://wiki.apache.org/incubator/BSDCSProposal
The system has been developed for years, more than 20 persons are
involved. It is used in distance learning in primary and middle schools
in China. More than 40,000 students has benefited from it. Our developing
website is http://202.117.16.176/ , source code is also available.
All source code of this project is written by ourselves, no third
part components are included.
Currently, all developers of "Blue Sky Distance Collaboration System"
are not native speaker of English. But we don't have any obstacles to
communicate in English on technical topics. We want to share our work
with people who is interested in it around the world. We want new
volunteers to make our team more diverse, active and creative.
For this is our first candidate project to Apache Foundation. We are
grateful for your ideas!
We are looking forward for your advice!

Yes, it's our mistake. The programs are initially developed with
Chinese interface. We are trying to fix the compatible
problems. Thank you very much!

Hi,
I tried to download the source code in zip format. I noticed that some of

Hi, Alex.
I think you have made quite a few very good points here. Just speaking for
us who work on the open source projects, communication is key to
collaboration which is critical for a healthy community. An open source
platform like BlueSky will be of great help to bring the developers around
the world much closer beyond the mailing list and IRC.
Thanks,
Raymond

Hello,
I just wanted to chime in a little bit about the importance of a project
like this. Although I
don't have enough time to properly mentor this project I hope others will
think about doing so.
I even debated why I was spending the time writing this email. If others do
not volunteer I will
try to make the time to help ensure it at least has a chance.
Initially I ignored the proposal after a quick read. It seemed completely
unrelated to the
technical topics I've been interested in. It seemed more of a completed
product that
some folks wanted to push here. As a result I felt it may take far too much
effort to make
those involved really understand the Apache way. It just did not feel like
my cup of tea.
I don't know just how much effort this will take but regardless I think the
expenditure is
well worth it for the sake of being able to collaborate better as a
community and for the world
as well. We created tools like ant and maven here because they facilitate
our processes but
this tool is no different. Perhaps no, it is more essential since it
provides the element which a
community needs most: collaboration.
This project is well worth any effort we can spare because it can help
further collaboration,
education and other distributed activities around the world. It can
o bring distant people together to form communities
o save time, money, and energy (literally fuel) when people no longer have
to travel for school or other activities
o reduce pollution and lesson global tensions due to less consumption of
limited fossil fuels
o make people understand each other better in a world where people often
misunderstand each other
o further education which seems to be failing to reach or affect the
masses - after all democracy does not
work without education (because then the idiot sons of the rich run the
show - OK that's OT :) )
Really I'm not so much a green guy nor a serious humanist. But it's clear
that half of the dependence on
fossil fuels would go away if the online collaboration tools worked well
enough to develop a culture around
their use. If it can help ignite a mass utilization that depends more on
online collaboration rather than travel, then
I think a global impact can result. Maybe this is a pipe dream but if it
has any potential even of reaching a
fraction of this pipe dream then it is something worth considering. I just
apologize for not seeing this potential
earlier. I even discredited the proposal and it's viability. Sorry for
that, I was ignorant.
Yesterday, I told a friend, "half our problems would go away if we all
started using bikes and the Internet."
Not referring to porn :). I said this to express my wish for more people in
America to be able to telecommute.
He triggered what changed my thoughts regarding this project by saying,
"yeah but the tools are not there
yet to enable people to effectively collaborate online."
Tools like this will help OS a great deal: collaboration and community go
hand in hand. Furthermore it helps
the general populous and my help lead to a better future for our little
planet. Let's face it if this place goes to
hell in a hand basket then there's not going to be much time for open source
projects. If we can save two birds
with the same project then let's go for it.
Now I'll find a place to hide as I get ridiculed for this post :-).

Ni Hao, Ting Peng
This is an interesting project. I'm happy to be a mentor if the project
is accepted for incubation.
How familiar is the Bluesky team with open source development at the
Apache Software Foundation? I'll be in Beijing the week of 12/3. If
you are interested, I can fly to Xi'an on 12/8 and meet with the Bluesky
developers at XJTU and talk about open source development at the ASF. I
must depart Xi'an on 12/11. Let me know if you are interested, I would
really enjoy meeting with you.

Thank you for your interest.
I am sorry that our server is temporarily down. We will fix it as soon
as possible.
The license of the source is an open source one. It is Apache License
, but we didn't sate it in the proposal.
Currently, we are not paid programmer. Most of us are post-graduated
students and udergraduate students. We think this project is
interesting and people can benefit from it. So We make it better and
better during the past years.

你好
The proposal is interesting, but I have a few concerns.
I can't get to http://202.117.16.176/ from Hong Kong, so I cannot see
the code or website.
Is the code already under an open source license?
How did the team grow from 2 to 20 developers? Are these developers
paid to work in this project?
The project seems very interesting, but I'm concerned that it's very
different from the other Apache software. This will make it difficult
to to get help from other Apache committers.
That said, if there's enough interest, I'll do what I can to help.

I believe it's written using Borland Delphi, Pascal on steroids.
I wonder if there is a compiler for this, it would suck to have open
source code that you can't compile cause there is no compiler available :)
I know borland has a delphi explorer for free, with a compiler, but that
not all extensions are available.
think it might be worth looking into

Yes, some source code of CWPlayer is written in Pascal. It was initially
develop in Delphi and MS Visual C++.
For function of CWPlayer is similar to that of XPlayer, and CWPlayer can
run only on Windows.
Now we may prefer to use XPlayer instead.
XPlayer is initially developed on GNU/Linux and written in C/C++. With
the help of Cygwin, it can also be compiled and run on Windows.
The source code of other components are also available at
http://202.117.16.176/ , they are compressed with /tar/.
They can be uncompress with /winrar/(runs on windows) or tar(runs on
GNU/Linux).

I am not part of IBM. During the development of Bluesky, IBM has given
us a lot of great ideas. IBM also thinks that more people can benefit
from our work if we put it in /Open Source Community/. So we accept
IBM's idea and trying to put it to Apache.

Hi,
Cool proposal! I have a couple of questions, just out of curiosity.

I could only see the source code for CWPlayer. I download it, and it
seems to be written in Pascal. Is that true? (I have nothing for or
against Pascal, just hadn't seen anything written in Pascal in a few
years, so I wanted to ask) ;)

I'm sure we'll be fine with respect to communications ;)

As you know IBM has contributed a bunch of stuff to Apache in the past
(and present). Are you part of IBM? Do you need their (IBM legal
department) approval for this, and if so, have you already gotten
their approval?

Most of the programs are written in C/C++(initially developed on
GNU/Linux). CWPlayer contains some Pascal code.
But XPlayer has the same function. XPlayer is also written in C/C++.
We also want to provide a /resource management system/, which is written
in java.
