  1. Top new features list – ordered (1st pass) • Set up decent CMS (e.g. Trac) - feature requests/voting, • bug tracking & dev by others – main rep at sites. • Visibility: AGportal, AG-TECH, Freahmeat, srcforge • Put up this list – Working items • HW support input • Make clear of unstable • RAT stability – error reporting – useful/automatic bug • Multithreaded mode • Mbus fixed – without mcast • Padlock security icon • VIC – receivers listed in main window • Padlock security icon • Startup GUI – address, keys, codecs? • GUI simplification • Clean compilation • Multi-OS support • AG – less importance on OSX • New codecs H.264 (external contribution) • Full screen video/arbitrary video resizing (external contribution) • Smart tiling – work from Taiwan • All video in one • Thumbnail sorting • Desktop sharing (compatible with inSORS?) • inSORS: H.264 “Data mode?” • VRVS: H.263 baseline • Video subtitling/watermarking (like the news!)   (Release) • Who's speaking functionality (external contribution) • Firewall/NAT traversal (UMTP?) • Port number in use • P2P (e.g. aspen) – source specfic behaviours (external contribution) • SRTP support • Signalling issues, rekeying • H.263 improved (UKERNA) – dependent upon GW initiative • Low bandwidth support (i.e. don't receive video if don't want)  (Release) SUMOVER Project workshop: 28-30 November 2005, UCL.

  2. Platforms • Windows • WinXP/03, WDM-config sensible?, VfW • Remove cruft builds and (MUSICA, HPUX etc, old stuff) • Installer: open-installer or binaries • Linux • Kernel 2.6.X, V4L2, ALSA:tweaking req’d • Check; VLC, Xawtv • Installer: rpm, ebuilds • Apple OSX • Quicktime • Current driver needs work – make clear • Carbon interface anybody – contributions welcome! • Installer: DMG, or binaries • Platform independent libs capture/other things • Pwlib, SDL (Win, Linux, Mac) • Directory services? SUMOVER Project workshop: 28-30 November 2005, UCL.

  3. Security • Secure RTP – stream security? - Would be nice but not essential • Used a lot – AVT • Re-keying necessary, control channel req’d • AGSC bookings – Manchester Venue • Not any other stable UK Venue Servers • Security assumed • Needs to be non-obstructive • Key distribution • VRVS future key dist for Evo • Session Description security • AG: Globus based (will change) • VRVS – username/Passwd, Plugable Auth, • Use tunnelling system (non-std) - Streams not encrypted • User level notification • Padlock icon • Firewall friendly • Probably Tool independent • ICE methododology • VIC: port usage • Use Common lib? • Handled by AG2.4 for WinFW SUMOVER Project workshop: 28-30 November 2005, UCL.

  4. Documentation • Types of doc • Dev: Code, APIs, Operation model, How-to add common components, style guide, info on release model, packaging. • User: Usage, Manual, FAQ • Existing docs • Common: DocBook • VIC, RAT: HTML, TxT • Doc systems • Doc++, Doxygen, Docbook, XML, javadoc? etc • Wiki approaches • Mediawiki, Moin-moin • Linked in with SCM systems • Trac wiki SUMOVER Project workshop: 28-30 November 2005, UCL.

  5. Hardware • Audio • PCI, USB cards • Drivers (WDM?, ALSA/JACK: sub-RAT plugins, QT) • RAT: Can’t use separate Input/out devs – not a concern tho • Video • USB Capture/Cams, PCI Capture • Drivers (WDM, V4L2, QT) • Display • Hardware Acceleration (OpenGL, DirectX, SDL…) • Multi-display • Compute platform • CPU dependency/acceleration • platform dependencies and debug probs • RAT uses MMX accelerated mixing • VRVS: IPP on AMD • Cameras • VRVS: USB cams • Mics • VRVS: only USB mics – e.g. phoenix (built-in e/c) • Echo cancellers SUMOVER Project workshop: 28-30 November 2005, UCL.

  6. Evaluation and Steering Advisory group (ESAG) • Provide • Feedback: Email, Web • Evaluation • Suggestions on project direction • Possible meetings • Lightweight • Volunteers • Attendees: Colin, Mike, Philipe, Louis, Andy, • Externals-Tba: Tom, Barz, Deb, Rhys, Steve-Smith • AGSC experiences - UKERNA • JCSR presentation • UKERNA liason, monthly meetings • VRE (Memetic) - JISC • Quarterly progress reports • Programme meetings SUMOVER Project workshop: 28-30 November 2005, UCL.

  7. Future Collaboration • Email list • Sumover-tech@cs.ucl.ac.uk • http://oakham.cs.ucl.ac.uk/mailman/listinfo/sumover-tech • Common meetings • Retreats, Grid meetings? • VRVS: ESNET, I2, APAN, Supercomputing, GGF, iGrid • Future SUMOVER workshop • Suggestions SUMOVER Project workshop: 28-30 November 2005, UCL.
