This is not that we do not have ideas :-) Our todo list includes: - book chapter on Roassal - exporters (e.g., HTML, SVG, JavaScript) - semantic zooming - way to compose shapes - scalability
We obtained this list from our personal needs and the need of the Moose and VW communities. Vanessa is working on a proposal for ESUG to help us on the development of Roassal. We are therefore surveying the Pharo community in case of there is a wished feature that we did not see or did not put high on our todolist. We are currently maintaining Roassal (i.e., fixing bugs) and pursuing our innovation effort (i.e., implementing cool ideas). The ESUG support will help us increase our productivity. And yes, we would love to see someone use Roassal to visualize genome, DNA and other biological data. We are ready to provide a strong support.
