Hi, Ransberger!<div><br></div><div>How about a SCADA (<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SCADA">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SCADA</a>) system mostly based on Squeak? You could base at least the HMI subsystem on it, but cool additions would be the RTU/PLC parts on Raspberry PI/Arduino. Even an editor to IEC 61131-3 suite of languages, particularly the graphical ones, could be feasible and definitely very appreciated.</div>

Hello Squeakers!<br>
<br>
My job search is turning up dead ends, hurry up and wait, and unfathomably boring prospects.<br>
<br>
Screw all that! I want to do something cool.<br>
<br>
I'm thinking about doing a KickStarter, but almost all of my ideas are either a) stuff no one else wants which only I could possibly think would be cool, or b) overly ambitious. The words Andreas used to describe my last idea: "a bit grandiose." Gift for understatement at times.<br>
<br>
So I'm looking for something which could be completed by one or two geeks in six months to a year, which people actually want, to be implemented (at least in part) using Squeak, and to be released at the end under the MIT license.<br>
<br>
I've floored my expenses, so I can make my own labor (relatively, for a guy living in Seattle) very cheap. By floored, I mean the room I sleep in isn't even tall enough to stand up in -- I do not presently meet the definition of a free-range chicken -- and I've disconnected my cellular service. I want to be an efficient engine for getting things that matter to me and other people done, rather than go on being some tool used to ship lucrative enterprise crapware.<br>
<br>
So here's the $x question: what do you want me to do? I have a Raspberry Pi on order, so bonus points if you can work that in somehow.<br>
<br>
The person with the best (realistic) idea will be credited for it.<br>
<br>
Inspire me! And thanks for reading all the way down to the bottom of this message.<br>
<br>
Casey<br>
