Bespin Reboot 2009
We have a new project to reboot Bespin, building on the knowledge that we have gained from the experiment so far. The goal is to allow us to build a solid foundation for the community at large to build on.
We have a different schedule for the reboot, which is:
- Weekly meetings, building to in person week
- September 4th; flushing out the high level goals
- September 11th
- September 18th
- September 25th
- In person: Week of Sept 28th
- Bringing in consultant to help build on SproutCore
- Use the week to decide if SproutCore Is It
