ZINC History

last edited 11 months ago by blackett

History

The idea, proof of concept and early generations of the cmgui web browser extension for the Mozilla platform were developed by ZEST. The project was code named ZINC.

ZEST released the source code of ZINC under open source license for the benifit of the Physiome Project

Andrew Miller, employed at the Bioengineering Institute, took the development lead of ZINC and re-engineered it, resulting in mozCmgui.

Shane Blackett, took that, renamed it back to ZINC and reimplemented it without CORBA but maintaining the same interfaces.

Peter Bier has been adding interface components to support image processing in the Digitiser.

In November 2007 ZINC was accepted as a public firefox addon

ZINC is now maintained collaboratively by:

  • ZEST (offering commercial support)
  • Shane Blackett
  • Peter Bier
