[dev] Hello !

[Goffi]

Hi Matthieu, welcome on this list (and thanks for  the support) :)

yes I did 2 talks so far (JDLL 2011 and FOSDEM 2012), but they weren't catched 
on video. I'll have an other one on next RMLL in Geneva (in French), on 
Tuesday (10th of July).
Anyway, you can find some videos on my blog: http://www.goffi.org with some 
explanations of the project/some features.

Great for the translation. For the record, I wrote the « contrat social » in 
french first because it's my mother tongue, and I wanted to be precise and 
clear. I can't review your translation right now (I'm at work, and tonight 
I'll be busy), but I'll do it this week-end (and Etherpad is an excellent 
idea).

You can join us on the XMPP Muc Room: sat at chat.jabberfr.org

For hg, we can manage patches on the mailing list.

I take the occasion to give some news of the project:

- the next release is close (really). I'm currently finishing a proof of 
concept of a pubsub component which manage per-item permissions. In practical 
terms, that will allow to do a better and more generic implementation of group 
access (similar to Diaspora's apects or G+'s circles). It's already possible 
in SàT, but the implementation was hacky and dirty. The good point is the 
component will stay standard compatible, and can be used with differents  XMPP 
servers/clients.

- I've also started a website for the project. So far I was using the wiki as 
the main page, because I don't want to loose time on communication; but I now 
think it's necessary for letting people understand more easily what the 
project is. The website will be available with the next release.

- with the pubsub component, all the main parts of the architecture will be 
available. It will then be possible to focus the work on usability, ...and 
killer features ;)

- I will put a new live demo of the web interface with the next release.

More news this week-end...

Cheers
Goffi
