Dev: Meeting, January 2014

• reviewing widgets stuff
  Design questions:

  • get_msg_cell, get_cell callback - should this callback exist for all IPython notebook messages?
  • How do we want to use require as it relates to our main.js and the IPython namespace?
  • Do width and height attribute for all of the widgets? Should they use css?
  • Widget binding to other widgets?
  • Do we want to expose flexible box model to users in Python?

• notebook storage & contents webservice

• nbviewer future plans

• discovery of running notebook servers

• kernel registry - and separating config for servers/users/kernels/notebooks

Design of multiuser server

• pluggable authentication
• unix user model: what parts of collaboration fit well with this, which ones don't?
• concept of projects? Is that the sharing unit?
• separate codebase for server vs. current server code.
  • What can be reused?
  • Does the multiuser server start single-user ones?
