We will surely review all the different options for interacting with external libraries.
Ronie is our local expert :-)
Currently, we have no preview of the Roassal book to share. Give us a couple of months
:-)
Cheers,
Alexandre

Thanks Kilon for your nice words.
Currently, AstroCloud is a bit slow. For example, loading this image takes
much more than it should. For now, speed is not our priority. AstroCloud has
to be fast and we will make it fast. Probably relying on external library is
the way to go.
I assume you consider or have considered NativeBoost as well?
Just to give a bit more context about why we are doing AstroCloud. ALMA is
the largest observatory on Earth, making it the largest astronomical project
in existence (
http://www.almaobservatory.org). This is what humanity has
best to detect life outside Earth.
ALMA is made of 66 high-precision antenas making it possible to see deep in
the universe. Unfortunately, there is no good software to process these
immensely complex pictures. Some tool suite naturally exist, but they were
not made for ALMA, making these existing tools largely suboptimal to process
complex picture of ALMA.
Faviola’s dream (and mine) is to produce a tool ready to be consumed by
astronomers to process ALMA pictures. Faviola and I are currently seeking
for additional resources on making this happen.
Regarding your help about documenting Roassal. It
is very welcome! In one of
my previous post, I said that 2014 will be the year of documenting Roassal.
A book is on its way.
We will need people to review it. So thanks!
Preview of part of it on line?
Regards
Hannes
