wubbaWe are looking at writing a front end for windows that can attach to ubuntu private clouds.  Where can we begin?02:51
flaccidwhere would you like to begin?02:55
wubbaWell - I'd like to have my programmer start working on a front end for windows that can attach to the ubuntu cloud.  And I am not sure what tools he would need to write it.  Is there like an SDK or something.02:57
flaccidwubba: http://open.eucalyptus.com/forum/eucalyptus-apis and euca tools03:09
flaccidhmm, is there an actual api yet, i forget..03:10
wubbagreat - that will be enough to get him started.03:10

flaccidsorry, http://cssoss.wordpress.com/2010/05/10/eucalyptus-beginner’s-guide-–-uec-edition-chapter-10-–-euca commands/03:11
flaccidfar out, they still have a long way to go03:11
flaccidshouldn't have to go through the source for the api03:12
wubbaso the Eucalyptus is the 'cloud' software03:12
flaccidsure, ubuntu just fork it and call their implementation UEC03:13
wubbaAh.  Ok.  I will need to build the cloud so I can give my programmer something to write to.  Thanks.  I appreciate it.03:13
flaccidbuild the cloud?03:14
flaccidi think the best you can do atm is probably create a Qt or Java app and have that use eucatools03:17
wubbabuild the server03:17
flaccidwell uec is pretty much out of the box..03:17
wubbaOK - but you don't believe that there is really any way to write a front end in windows to attach to the UEC servers?03:18
wubbayet03:18
flaccidi just provided a real way..03:23
flaccidtis what i would do03:23
wubbaok03:24
flaccidi hope your dude is not a .net person..03:24
wubbaHe is :)03:27
wubbamostly03:27
wubbabut I think he has c# experience too03:27
wubbaqt is expensive03:28
flaccidc# is a programming language dominantly used in .net03:28
flaccidQt is dual licensed. it is free and it costs less than .net if you are looking at purchasing a license03:28
flaccidJava is also free03:29
wubbatrue03:29
flaccidthere is no reason to limit yourself to windows only by using .net.03:29
wubbaVery true.03:34
