Announcing HyperScope v1.0!    #

Last March, I announced the HyperScope project. Six months later, I'm proud to announce the release of HyperScope v1.0. More information is available from the HyperScope web site.    (L5E)

We're throwing a little release party at SRI in MenloPark tomorrow night to celebrate, and it looks like we're going to have a great crowd. We're also announcing a contest to write HyperScope file transformers. The prize? No less than lunch with the man himself, DougEngelbart. (Or, if you're not in the BayArea, then you'll win an autographed poster.)    (L5F)

It has been an intense and gratifying experience. I've known Doug for almost seven years now, and I've studied his work intensely for longer, and I still learned a tremendous amount. Much of that learning was the result of collaborating with an unbelievable team, including Doug, his daughter ChristinaEngelbart, JonathanCheyer, and the man who wrote the HyperScope code, BradNeuberg.    (L5G)

I'm looking forward to sharing much of that knowledge over the next few months. For now, play with the software and participate in our community. The best document (for now) to play with is Doug's classic 1962 paper, "Augmenting Human Intellect: A Conceptual Framework."    (L5H)
