I've suggested that Seel should be made open source. For those who weren't able to make it to Corvallis, see [1] and [2]. Basically, my hope is that the software and language would be improved by additional interested developers. The underlying assumption, and it's a biggie, is that there actually will be more developers. We need to test that assumption before we make the decision, so that we have realistic expectations if we do open it up. So, I'm wondering how many people think they might actually work on it. I know it's difficult to answer that question without having something to evaluate, but the discussion inside OCLC isn't likely to make much headway unless I can demonstrate real interest. Please feel free to pass this on to other people/groups who might be interested. /dev [1] http://www.code4lib.org/2006/smith [2] http://ir.library.oregonstate.edu/dspace/handle/1957/2947 -- Devon Smith <[log in to unmask]> Senior Software Engineer, Office of Research OCLC Online Computer Library Center, Inc http://www.oclc.org/research/ http://www.oclc.org/research/staff/smith.htm
