Studierstube 3.0

Plans, ideas and progress for the next Studierstube version.

progess - next steps and what is done - as of 7-09-2002

Plan:

• add possibility to have several instances of an app ?
• fix any crashes by simply ignoring most faults

Done :

• improve DIV macro performance with context information - done only for windows which were the performance killers anyway
• streamline opentracker - Stb3DEventGenerator interface
• include windows by Gottfried
• solution for cameras within tracked locales...
• add context sensitive traversal
• include distribution fully in stb
• add compression to div
• fix some missing events regarding pip sheet stuff
• tests with multiple locales
• dynamic user management - requires sharing of user information - zaa
• finish sman2
• test to add userkit
• integrate zaa work
• div moved to ACE
• distrmanager moved to ACE
• improved ACE reliable multicast, almost as good as div
• checked and tested zaa work, but not on modified version.

Steps for Studierstube 3.1

To be able to finish the work on Stb 3.0, we need to decide on a limited feature set. These features are left for the next version.

• update to Qt3.0
• update SoQt
• extend context to provide more information for other traversals then rendering
• add monitor to session manager
