Hi,

I just released femhub-0.9.2. Changes since the last release:

* mesa library fixed to build and install on Mac
* VTK fixed so that it configures, picks up the correct mesa and
starts buildling. It unfortunately still fails at about 21%, see:
http://code.google.com/p/femhub/issues/detail?id=34
I admit that I have not clue how to fix it. It seems it's some
problem with dylib vs .so vs framework on Mac, but I don't know.
Brian, do you have any idea? I will ask on sage-devel and spd list,
maybe someone will know.


Let's discuss future plans.

* Should I create some stripped down version (without VTK/mayavi) that
builds on Mac? It will be more work on my side to maintain two
versions, but I would like to get Brian and other Mac users involved.

* I can try to build traits based gui for some examples
* port all our hermes2d plotting to pyglet (I have some code for that already)

* get videos working in the notebook

* port our hp adaptivity examples to work nice in the notebook

what is the highest priority? I think the last point (hp examples), so
that we can show that to people easily.

Let slow down here a bit, I would like to coordinate this with
Mateusz. He was not completely negative about a web-based GUI
or even a more general tool for designing web-based GUIs. 


* port all our hermes2d plotting to pyglet (I have some code for that already)

This is a very high priority. 


* get videos working in the notebook

Also high but a bit less than pyglets. 


* port our hp adaptivity examples to work nice in the notebook

Highest. I will present Hermes at INRIA (France) in the
middle of July. Some company in Darmstadt (Germany)
is talking about inviting me to present Hermes in the second
half of July. They want our know-how and might be willing to
support Hermes development financially.

Best,

Pavel
