hi,

There is much to report on from the FM meet up and I am now assembling 
the minutes.I should have them for the list in the next days. I will 
first send to everyone that was there to add items if anything is missing.

ok...so, now a very special preview. As everyone probably knows, the 
French FM has been very active and when I asked the list a while back 
for someone to do some RSS visualisation the French FM stepped up. Elisa 
introduced me to Pierre Commenge and Pierre agreed to work on the RSS 
visualisation.

The idea is to try and provide a good visualisation of how books are 
made. This is a good tool, something very nice to look at, and also 
potentially it may offer in time some very very valuable research 
possibilities for analysing the process of how books are actually made.

Aco is doing some customisation of the RSS output to give Pierre better 
data to work with but in the meantime Adam Thomas is presenting a 
preview of Pierres work on this tonight at a presentation about Booki in 
New York at the Mobility Shifts conference. So, also for the FM list is 
a special preview...its alpha stage and for our eyes only, but here is 
(with Pierres blessing) a preview of his work when applied to data 
produced by Book over a 2.5 hour period during the CiviCRM Book Sprint a 
few weeks ago...enjoy!:
