Technical Plan

Part of writing your technical plan is to select a day to present a topic. It could be a particular software package, a piece of code, or a technique. The key is that it should be something you would like to learn more about. You need to think of a small "proof of concept", an idea you would like to realize using the given tool. (Important to keep the scale realistic;) In the process of realizing this project, use the wiki page to document your progress. You should:

• Create a page on the TD wiki on your topic.
• Include links to the resources you used / found helpful in preparing your presentation.
• Create a small "proof of concept" demonstration of what you think you might be able to do / make with the given tool / software. As you go about.

• Django (Alex?)
• FontForge (Emanuele or Loredana?)
