[via Scripting News] They say that Rotor compiles and runs on both XP and FreeBSD 4.5. I wonder how much work it would take to get it to run on OS X?
And how does this affect Mono? |

One of the interesting implications of RCS is that a Radio installation that has RCS installed can itself be a member of an RCS installation. In most of the explanations I've seen, the assumption is that the RCS installation is hosting a collaboration group, and that the copy of Radio running RCS is also a member of the same group. What if it isn't? What if that particular copy of Radio is a member of another collaboration group? It could be using the aggregator to examine the output of the members of its RCS, and then flowing the best to the next level. Or, rather than cherry picking, it could be flowing ALL of the information on to the next level. Then Radio becomes not just an edge phenomena, but an interior node as well. What could that be used for? Another idea that's been tickling my head is that people keep asking for the ability to have Radio installed in multiple areas (assuming multiple Radio licenses, of course), and maintaining one weblog. So you could be at work, or at home, or somewhere else with a laptop, able to update your own weblog, rather than scattering your ideas through several different weblogs. You could use the XML Storage System built into RCS to transfer information, and then write code that aggregates and posts the information to your single weblog. I suppose you don't even need the XSS stuff, you could write some code that reads your RSS, and "auto-posts" it to your weblog. The tricky part is making sure everyone has the same view. Perhaps we could use RSS for that as well. Once you post something to the central copy of Radio, the result flows back to all of the different places you could post from.
Okay I'm rambling again. Don't know why I post this disorganized stuff,
but I do. It's a good way of making sure the idea is captured. |
