I (Wybo) have just been at the LIRMM lab in Montpellier, France for a week, working on LogiLogi. The LIRMM lab, under the leadership of Michel Robert, and with the guidance of Jean Sallatin, will be using LogiLogi to write and discuss their self-evaluative documents, and their mission-statement. The LIRMM really is an inspiring place, where 180 staff and about 170 PhD & master’s students work on topics like robotics, micro- electronics, and (most of them) on computer-science.
I’m typing this as I am on the train back home, because we have been working so hard (also over the weekend) that there was hardly any time left for other things, such as updating the blog. I haven’t even seen the beach, except from the plane :-)
We have fixed a lot of bugs, and also done some small, but important improvements to the UI. In all, it was a good time, and for all the hard work (the devving was fun in itself too!), there were also good conversations, even if some of them were in French :-)
I will be doing some more fixes during a few evenings in the coming weeks, but LogiLogi should be quite usable and stable now. There is more good news in the making, but I will post it in another post.

Reallife discussion later in the project
Steffen Michels is our hero!, the Slayer of Bugs; he is the winner of the glorious Manta bug-hunt! He found 8 different bugs, and he fixed 8 of them, and those were not the least of bugs.
Some were quite a challenge! Luckily we were able to take a picture of him in full fight with one of the most staggering software-bugs ever caught on camera!
Seven students from the university of Nijmegen have just joined our team. They will be developing LogiLogi Manta with us as part of a course. Meet them: Wybo (me), Rens, Jordy, Roel, Thierry, Steffen, Bart and Feng!
In two weeks they will be set up and ready to rock with Ruby. Then we will have a bug-hunt on the alpha-version until the end of march. During this bug-hunt Manta is tested and twisted extensively as both finding bugs and squashing them are going to be core objectives. And after this LogiLogi Manta finally goes live!
...Continue reading »As of this week Miguel Lezama is doing his internship with the LogiLogi Foundation. He already was involved in LogiLogi as a FOSS-developer for some time (as a Javascript-wizzard), but now he can get study-credits for it too! :)
His internship is made possible by Jan Mikáč, who is part of the (also quite interesting) Web Adaptation and Multimedia-project of the Laboratoire d’Informatique de Grenoble. We thank him for this.
We’re very happy to have Miguel with us, and we hope, and think he will have a great, lasting influence on LogiLogi. Welcome to Miguel!
