I'll use this to respond to both posts.
So at this point i need to go of on a bit of a rant. I did check out
your code
and it looks like "My first video conferencing application", which is fair
enough really as for most if not all of you it will be your first video
conferencing application.
It is sad though that a project that afaik is partially meant to teach how to
do open source development seems to have completely failed at actually using
open source properly.
The team has consistently asked for help for months with this application and been
regularly pointed to documentation that reads "to be documented" or been
rebuffed. If they have the perspective that
they are "bothering the upstream" its because they've learned that the
community based around these technologies
is less than receptive to requests for support.
They're happy to stand on the shoulders of others.
They didn't get it. They would have responded if the had
To the best of my knowledge they are consistently in IRC, have been blogging their work
regularly, etc.
Whoever erected the fence shouldn't have put it up in the first place. As for jungle
guides Mel Chua's pretty good
and she's been involved with the course and the projects (of which this is just one,
and the only one that's had
these difficulties in getting support from upstream)
Those points addressed, I'm thankful for the assistance that's currently being
offered and look forward
to a productive project collaboration. Could have done without the rant, but
we'll take whatever assistance we can get no matter how its offered.
