Future of Collaborative Scaladoc development
Wed, 2010-10-27, 00:47
Hello to all Scala fans,
You have not heard about Collaborative Scaladoc project for some time.
The reason is, that I have been moving from Prague to London to start
my postgraduate research study at Imperial College and I have been
very busy for the last few weeks.
So, is the project still alive? I believe so, but as I am the only
developer at the moment, I do not have enough time to continue with
its development. The main reason is, that as a postgraduate research
student at Imperial College, I am not receiving much money from the
department (they only cover my tuition fees at the moment). Therefore,
in my free time, I am working on commercial projects in order to earn
some money to cover my living costs, even though I would more likely
work on Collaborative Scaladoc project. However, my current life
situation does not give me any other choice.
I have been already trying to get some sponsorship for my study from
large IT companies, but I was unsuccessful. While discussing my
situation and project status with Gilles, he came up with the idea,
that there might be some companies willing to sponsor the development
of Collaborative Scaladoc itself. If this would be true, it would mean
that I would be able to work again on Collaborative Scaladoc in my
free time (instead of working on commercial projects) which would be
really great.
That is why I would like to ask you, if you know about any such
companies, that would be willing to sponsor the development of this
project? If yes, I would be very thankful for any recommendations or
even direct contacts to concrete people.
I would be very thankful for any help as I would really like to
continue in the development of Collaborative Scaladoc. I truly believe
that it has a great potential.
Thank you very much for any response and help.
Cheers,
Petr
