APIs for a future Live Collaboration Plugin

[merarischroeder]

I would love to build a Live Collaboration plugin one day, but currently the APIs are quite restrained, and that wouldn't be possible. What plans are there to expand the Plugin API if at all in the next few years?

Rick plans to open up the plugin system to voice commands:

 

Quote

Enhance 224 to 176.

Enhance. Stop.

Move in. Stop.

Pull out, track right. Stop.

Center and pull back. Stop.

Track 45 right. Stop. Center and stop.

Enhance 34 to 36.

Pan right or-and pull back. Stop.

Enhance 34 to 46.

Pull back. Wait a minute. Go right. Stop.

Enhance 57 to 19. Track 45 left. Stop.

Enhance 15 to 23.

Gimme a hard copy right there.

 

Just kidding. I don't think he plans to open the plugin system up for cooperative drawings.  You'd have to do this in a separate program, I think.

Ok, I'll probably just use Reflection as a Proof of Concept project first then.

It won't get implemented in any case. Just not enough demand, and not enough idle time to burn. PDN only has I think 3 authorized contributors all-told, and they're pressed as it is.

Proof of concept isn't going to get anything moving forward. This is not on the roadmap. Please do not spend your time on this.
