[atlas-l] current status of atlas?

[jer]

There's not a good comprehensive writeup yet as it's likely to change  
during early prototyping and implementation.... which is the next  
step.  I started that process with test data but decided that a  
proper prototype would be best atop lots of real data, so all the  
attention lately has been in getting grub.org up and running, lots of  
discussion on grub-dev (http://lists.wikia.com/mailman/listinfo/grub- 
dev).  Once grub is even remotely stable, I'll make a test Atlas  
Factory interface to it :)

Closely related to an Atlas Broker would be the current search  
interface for Wikia, http://re.search.wikia.com.  It's basically a  
javascript app that runs in the browser and pulls search results down  
via JSON, with the option to do a lot more at that point including  
getting more JSON results from other indexes and merging them (ah-la- 
broker).

A lot of stuff related to the Atlas model is happening, just not much  
movement on the protocol, but I hope that changes soon too.
