Re: Re: [koi-dev] Collaboration tools question

Actually, upon further investigation, we have decided not to use KOI for our
remote pair programming plugin. The reason being that KOI's servers are
passive, yet we intended to use them soley as a message passing service.
This means that we either force clients to poll for updates, or we do some
kind of workaround such as making each client a server as well. Since this
is against the intent of KOI, we have chosen to instead add our own
peer-to-peer networking backend.

Alex, your experience and expertise would be invaluable to us. However,
because this is a school assignment, we are not allowed to accept direct
participation in the project from outside the group. This project will cease
to be a school project in mid-April, at which point we would like to make it
openly available. We would be very appreciative if you wanted to help us
then - but please understand that we are not using KOI.

Thank you, and good luck to everyone with the rest of the development of
KOI.
