[GSoC] Impress Remote Protocol

[Artur Dryomov]

Hey Siqi,

Your progress is huge, you are working pretty fast ;-)

I haven’t worked on the server-side unfortunately. My plan was to implement the redesign of the client and then to work on the server. The idea was about implementing things with the current version of the protocol and only then move forward. That strategy gave me a better understanding of how the protocol works actually.

The work on the client is going not so fast as I expected — most of the work is done and I hope to finish it soon, but a lot of time gone for debugging and optimizing.

Protocol-related changes are part of my proposal actually. I have fears that if you’ll implement them I can fail the GSoC. Can you spend some more time on polishing, posting screenshots to the ux-advise list, QA, implementing iPad version, planning the Bonjour support? The design for the iOS 7 would be great as well — it is possibly coming this fall ;-) I’ll speed up and try to finish the redesign as fast as possible. Sorry for slowing things down — I just want to finish the GSoC successfully as much as you are ;-)

What do you think?

Regards,
Artur.
