+ <h3>Special Thanks</h3>
|
|
18
|
+ <p>Ongoing development of Typica is made possible through the
|
|
19
|
+ generous financial contributions from the following:</p>
|
|
20
|
+
|
|
21
|
+ <p>Pinnacle Coffee Roasting</p>
|
|
22
|
+
|
|
23
|
+ <h3>Get Involved</h3>
|
|
24
|
+ <p>Typica has reached a point in its development where it can
|
|
25
|
+ be considered mature with a feature set appropriate for many
|
|
26
|
+ coffee roasting firms. There is, however, considerable variety
|
|
27
|
+ among roasting firms in the equipment used, roasting styles,
|
|
28
|
+ process traceability requirements, languages understood, and
|
|
29
|
+ other preferences. There is also still considerable room for
|
|
30
|
+ improvement in many areas. The development of Typica has been
|
|
31
|
+ on a budget of approximately $0, but software development is
|
|
32
|
+ not without cost. This is especially the case for cross
|
|
33
|
+ platform development of software that interfaces with external
|
|
34
|
+ hardware. These are some of the things that could be done with
|
|
35
|
+ additional funding:
|
|
36
|
+ <ul>
|
|
37
|
+ <li>Improve development and testing infrastructure.
|
|
38
|
+ This would allow more complete testing of release
|
|
39
|
+ candidates on all platforms and greatly increase the
|
|
40
|
+ quality and speed at which new releases could be made
|
|
41
|
+ available.</li>
|
|
42
|
+ <li>Purchase additional measurement devices. Interest
|
|
43
|
+ has been expressed in using many types of hardware not
|
|
44
|
+ currently supported in Typica. Some of these
|
|
45
|
+ suggestions are quite reasonable and the only reason I
|
|
46
|
+ am not able to include support for them is simply that
|
|
47
|
+ I do not have a sample of the hardware to test my code
|
|
48
|
+ against.</li>
|
|
49
|
+ <li>Pay for web hosting. While the Internet allows
|
|
50
|
+ free software to be distributed cheaply, this is not
|
|
51
|
+ without cost.</li>
|
|
52
|
+ <li>Allow more development time. As of this writing,
|
|
53
|
+ nobody has contributed any improvements to Typica's
|
|
54
|
+ program code. This has all been designed and written
|
|
55
|
+ by a single person working on it as time is available.
|
|
56
|
+ Many of the planned improvements require nothing beyond
|
|
57
|
+ time to plan an implementation, to write the program
|
|
58
|
+ code, to integrate it with the rest of the program, and
|
|
59
|
+ to test that the feature is sound. With sufficient
|
|
60
|
+ sustained funding it would be possible to devote more
|
|
61
|
+ time to continuing development, resulting in a more
|
|
62
|
+ rapid release of features and other improvements to
|
|
63
|
+ Typica.</li>
