Im in.

I still need more volunteers...

If I join, what should I do?

[Saga Musix]

It's a user study. The exact details are not known yet, but it usually consists of having to fulfill a set of tasks in the application, plus fulling out a questionnaire. It's really not a lot of work and will take less than an hour.

I'm always online on #modarchive, you can contact me.

Hey guys I would love to test a feature like this, not november anymore, but am adding my voice regardless.

[Saga Musix]

The test design is not finalized yet, but hopefully I will get to do the experiment this week. If not this week, then next week at the latest I guess / hope.

cool I'll check in daily for a while.

[Saga Musix]

The experiment will happen in the next week. I will contact people individually to figure out when and how we're going to do it. If you want, you can already send me a personal message or not down here when you will be available.

Small update: The thesis has been submitted (in January) and I finally got my M.Sc. degree in computer science! However, this doesn't mean that networking will be part of the official OpenMPT builds anytime soon. What I implemented was a prototype that covered most of the important editing actions, but it was nowhere complete, and many things were not necessarily implemented in a maintainable way due to time constraints. I learned a lot from the process and can do things better in the future, but it's still a lot of work. Another long-standing and big feature idea, Scripting, may actually be helpful here because it requires a lot of similar infrastructure in the code. This means that I will first try to implement scripting, and then maybe try to implement networking as a script.
