| A Possible Future of Software Development |

Google Tech Talks
July, 25 2007
ABSTRACT
This talk begins with an overview of software
development at Adobe and a look at industry
trends towards systems built around object
oriented frameworks; why they "work", and why
they ultimately fail to deliver quality,
scalable, software. We'll look at a possible
alternative to this future, combining generic
programming with declarative programming to
build high quality, scalable systems.
Speaker: Sean Parent
Sean Parent is a principal scientist at Adobe
Systems and engineering manager of the Adobe
Software Technology Lab. One of his team's
current projects is the Adobe Source
Libraries

Dear friends. I, Rafael Correa, President of
the Republic of Ecuador, greet you. As you
already know, now is the time to integrate
Latin America in every aspect, including
technology and the use of information
technology.
This is the reason why the adoption of Free
Software is necessary on a public as well as
on a private level. Through its use we will
be able to assure autonomy for our states, we
will depend only on our own strength and not
on others, and we will become producers of
technology and no longer be simple comsumers.
We will own the source code and develop
products which, with an appropriate
channelling of our efforts, should become
significantly important for our region's
public and private businesses.
That is why we should all use Free Software.
The government of Ecuador has already
established it as a Goverment and State
policy. This is an important step that will
lead us to the integration of Latin America
and, why not say so, to its liberation.

Queridos amigos. Os saúda, Rafael Correa,
Presidente da República do Equador. Vocês
sabem que é chegada a hora da integração
da América Latina em todos os aspectos,
entre eles, os aspectos tecnológicos e o uso
da tecnologia da informação.
Por isso é necessário que todos adotemos,
tanto na esfera pública quando na esfera
privada, o software livre, Dessa maneira
garantiremos a soberania dos nossos Estados,
dependeremos de nossas próprias forças,
não de forças externas a região. Seremos
produtores de tecnologia, não simplesmente
consumidores. Seremos donos dos códigos
fontes, e poderemos desenvolver muitos
produtos que, com a articulação adequada de
nossos esforços, poderão ser de utilidade
para as empresas públicas e privadas da
região.
Por isso, vamos todos utilizar software
livre. O governo equatoriano já o
estabeleceu como polÃtica de Governo e de
Estado. Isto será um importante passo para a
integração e, para que não dizer, para a
libertação da América Latina.

Mes chers amis. Le president de la republique
d'Equateur vous saluent. Comme vous le savez,
il est l'heure de l'integration de l'amerique
latine a tous les niveaux, incluyan entre
autres la technologie et l'utilisation des
technologies de l'information.
Pour cette raison, il est necessaire que
tous, nous adoptions, aussi bien au niveau
publique que privé, le logiciel libre. De
cette maniere, nous garantirons la
souveraineté de nos etats, nous dependrons
de nos propres forces, et non pas de force
externes a la region; Nous serons createur de
tecnologies, et pas seulement des
consommateurs; nous serons proprietaires des
sources; et nous pourrons developper ne
nombreux logiciels qui, avec une bonne
coordination de l'effort de developpement,
peut etre d'une grande utilité pour les
entreprises publiques et privée de la
region.
Aussi, j'invite tous le monde a utiliser les
logiciels libre. Le gouvernement Equatorien
l'a deja etabli comme politique d'Etat. Ceci
constituera un pas important dans
l'integration et, pourquoi ne pas le dire,
dans la liberation de l'amerique du sud.

| Croquet Software Demo Movie (August 2007) |
 |
This is an edited screen capture from a
Croquet demo given by Julian Lombardi in
August of 2007. It shows some of the
capabilities of the open source Croquet
software development environment. Croquet is
designed for use in creating and deploying
large-scale distributed multi-user virtual 3D
applications and metaverses that are (1)
persistent (2) deeply collaborative, (3)
interconnected and (4) interoperable. The
Croquet architecture supports synchronous
communication, collaboration, resource
sharing and computation among large numbers
of users on multiple platforms and multiple
devices.
