DPS909 - Topics in Open Source Development
My primary project will be to collaborate with [[User:Kclascon|Kevin Lasconia]] and the community at the National Film Board to create a video player in HTML5 and JavaScript. This project will be to work alongside their current Flash-based player, which will serve as a fallback in a non-compliant browser. Complete project details can be found on our [[NFB_HTML_5_Video_Player|project page]] or at the NFB's [http://developer.nfb.ca/trac/web/wiki/NFBHTML5videoplayer developer spec].
<span style="text-decoration: underline">=== Secondary Project (C3DL) ====As browsers are incorporating hardware acceleration as standard, WebGL is on the horizon as a web technology. The [[Canvas3D_JS_Library|C3DL JavaScript library]] has been in development to make it easier for web applications to use WebGL. They are presently working to refactor the existing code and incorporate a build system as well as automated testing environment. I will contribute to this project in addition to my primary project above. ==== Weekly Progress</span>====
