Development status for

Conference Dashboard


Hello. I'm Drew, VE1DRU.

I support Martin, VE1KLR on the tech side of the 420 Network, in support for it to be what it is; a platform for Amateur Radio Ragchew. It's crosslinked to many different modes, made possible by some fine Amateur Radio Operators from around the globe. They hardlink their crosslinked nodes, or RF nodes to the system. It really helps, and makes it easy to connect to the 420 network.

So, a bit about what I do around here, I develop and maintain a few of the core services for the 420 Network.

Currently, I have the pleasure of offering the following services:

This offers a High Availability Network to help the 420 Network run smoothly.


"Conference Dashboard":

While developing the 420 Network, we needed a dashboard to oversee what's happening on the network as a whole, combining all of the crosslinked modes, and various links. This type of dashboard didn't seem to exist, so I've been making one, and this is the changelog for it.

It's currently in the ALPHA stage of software development, or in other words, it receives large changes, and is probably buggy. At this stage, it's more or less a proof of concept. It's going to be just information thrown at the screen. As of now, I've learned how to work with the various reflector software. So, I'm currently creating a user interface that will better fit what it's become, detailed in the changelog below.

I enjoy building this page, but I only get to play with it in my spare time, so development is slow.

You will find a full changelog below, with details of what the dashboard can do now, and any planned upcoming features.


"Conference Dashboard" currently supports the following reflector software:

Download:
The source code for "Conference Dashboard", and it's supporting scripts and software, is not available for download at this time. They will be released on a future date under the GPLv3 or (at your option) any later version of the GNU General Public License.


Thank you for taking interest,
73, Drew
