[self-interest] UnitTesting & TUIO & Klein

[Jan-Paul Bultmann]

Since I am new here I am gonna flood you guys with some questions :D  
Self is such a beautiful language and environment (not in a design  
sense ; ) ) and I think I finally found the holy grail^^

•How is klein going? Still alive?
•What do you think of TUIO (Multitouch Std Protocoll) integration, and  
converting the whole System to a mutlitouch environment? I think it  
would be the perfect match :D
I will move heaven and earth at my university to get that as my  
undergraduate thesis :D

Sounds reasonable. Maybe a new testing application that allows you to  
integrate drivers, objects and mock objects. Im imagining the test  
driver on the left, the object under test in the middle connected with  
lines, and the mocks on the right also connected with lines, so that  
you can instantly see how its driven and how its hooked up :/...^^
