Happy New Year :)

Here’s a shot of the new website, under development. No snazzy graphics yet. And probably too many menu options on the left at the moment (less is more, as they say). It’s based on what will eventually be a generic project management tool, called neomemProject.

neomemProject

I’m hoping to have this take over this site in February or March. We’ll see how that goes…

NeoMem has been turning into various subprojects over the last several months, and now they have names -

  • neomem the current program (C++/MFC). new release(s) coming in January.
  • neomemRails - the new version using MySQL and Ruby on Rails. for both desktop and web use - currently under development. old screenshot in this post
  • neomemProject - a module built on neomemRails to provide project management. under development.
  • neomemData - this is the backend portion of neomemRails, would also be used by neomemRuby and neomemConsole. basically storing everything in one giant table, including relationships. under development.
  • neomemRuby - a future desktop version that would replace the current program.
  • neomemConsole - a future semi-natural language console-based interface for neomemData. would be both a standalone program, and a view in both neomemRuby and neomemRails.
  • neomemPda - sort of a pipe dream - a very simple pda that would work like a stack of index cards. synch whatever data to it that you want to carry around with you. write notes on it with “ink”, then back at your desktop you could translate them to ascii (either manually or with some smart ocr). also a voice recorder function.

I’ll be working on all of this stuff over the coming year. Once I have more of the skeleton of neomemRails working, I’ll start seeking some more developers to help out - that might be a couple of months.

I recently fixed a couple of bugs in neomem, and added one feature (using an .ini file instead of the registry). I’ll be posting these updates as I go, but I don’t have an automated deployment system set up yet, so it’s sort of slow going at the moment.

Also slowly catching up on emails and forum posts and blog comments…
