Planning Miro’s Future Extension System

August 5th, 2007 — Dean Jansen

While we have no date set, we do plan on putting an extensions system into Miro.

Currently, we see a number of ways to tackle this problem. Our approach will largely dictate what the extensions will be capable of and how difficult they are to build. Your input will be very helpful in guiding our decisions.

What amazing things will you do with Miro’s extension system? Do you want Miro to automatically search for networked folders and pull in videos that are detected? Are custom skins important? Do you just want to change the default hotkeys?

Another thing that will help us is knowing the technical abilities of people interested in extensions. Will you be building it yourself? Hiring someone? Begging strangers? Have you written in Python? C? PHP?

If we build a system, who will come?

Ongoing input will be accepted in our new forum section: Extension Dreams Please try to give as much detail as possible in your posts.
