[Verse-dev] How does the verse stack compare to MXP?

[Aaron Ryan]

Hello All,

I am an architecture grad student interested in exploring real time
collaborative design as a part of my thesis which is to years away.  I have
been casually following the development of the Verse protocol for about a
year, and to be honest I am intrigued but a little confused on where and how
to begin the process of implementing a plugin for Rhino5, or 3DS Max or
Maya.  I have experience programming in C++ for embedded microcontrollers,
and Java for graphics (via Processing and beyond).

It would be great to be able to utilize the Verse protocol for collaborative
design efforts....I have started to explore this by programming various
connections between Processing and Grasshopper via UDP.

I know that Verse will be a much bigger challenge, but I am eager to start
looking at implementing a real set of tools/plugins.

Any help or feedback would be greatly appreciated.

Best Regards,
Aaron M. Ryan
