Response to: There's a flaw in the implementation IMHO

The UI that you see in the screenshots, and that you may have seen in our demo, is pretty much just a placeholder. I think that we'll have to iterate several times on the interface before we start to get close to the right UI.


Things to consider: asynchronous notification of matches; matches-on-demand; hover over 'match compartments' for more information, and so on.


Hopefully in two or three weeks we'll be far enough along to start focusing on the UI; I think that's a rich area of mainly greenfield.

    I'm the anonymous poster from above. I'm looking forward to seeing what you guys come up with. I'm seriously contemplating trying to get a Mac OS X UI going with your dashboard software too. I think it's important that any dashboard UI ports flaunt the UI niceties of the platform they reside on. The only thing holding me back is I think it may be quite a big undertaking as opposed to a straight port (i.e. because of the necessity for Mac OS X versions of plugins and such). I suppose you'll hear from me if I actually get started on the thing:-)
