eventually i'd like to dig into the .net part of 3dcustomizer.net
<linext>
shared rendering and mirroring
<linext>
i was thinking of an openscad .zip format called .SCAR
<linext>
Script Cad ARchive
<linext>
it would contain dependencies and extract them into a folder, just like unzipping
<teepee>
I wonder how that activitypub stuff could work or even shared editing like piratepad :)
<linext>
i was thinking of hooking a private git server to track code changes
<InPhase>
You're going to call it .scar? That could leave a mark.
<teepee>
yeah, some sort of archive seems nice, it gets tricky with libraries though
<teepee>
:D
<linext>
i'm already running a git server on the web server that hosts 3dcustomizer.net
<linext>
imagine getting a pull request, or a real clone/fork
<InPhase>
linext: So on file formats for an archive, you'll need one that everyone's computer can recognize.
<linext>
i'd like it to be unique, and possibly developed outside of the openscad.org project
<linext>
so not just another .zip file
<linext>
a recognizable extension that unpacks everything and opens the .SCAD
<linext>
like an executable .JAR
<linext>
for the extra files like TTF, SVG, DXF, DAT, bla bla
<teepee>
yeah, 3mf is something like that, and amf has a version too, unfortunately they had the bad idea to have both zipped and unzipped with same extension
<teepee>
but then, it's dead, so it does not matter :)
<linext>
oh yea, teepee, the model you submitted has an error
