Graal Messenger & The Graal Network

[NovaNET]

Umm ok where to start?

I quit my job (stupid yes but oh well) because i have had a lack in time to manage my projects and my girlfriend was on the verge of breaking up with me. Im gonna get a part-time job in a few weeks but right now im going to notch up production on my graal projects which have been lacking the promised attention (Yes i admitting slacking) Furthermore my Playerworld project will come second as im not gonna jump from project to project like some people. Anyways lets cut to the chase ill give you the run down.

Graal Messenger:
I recently as of 10 minutes ago registered GraalMessenger.com so in about 24 Hours it will be mine. "Graal Messenger" is in no way endorse by CyberJouerers at this time. The word "Graal" is currently not trademarked in any legal fashion (I did the research) nor has it been for 10+ years at which time it was owned by a book company in sweden. Anyways i filed a fictitious name registration (not a copyright or trademark) just a piece of paper that says im DBA as Graal Messenger under Nova Group. Nova Group is a Non-Profit Software Development group i created and it is fully registered both with the federal gov and state but aswell with the Better Business Bureau (Kudos). As soon as GraalMessenger.com is propragated to the global nameservers i will putup a site something of a project site for the time being with screenshots, plan layouts, source code and more i will be sharing all source code under a modified GPL. But all official clients thus guarantee to be Virus, Trojan Free will have a special unreproduceable graphic and several other authentic items ill be imbedding for you security. Graal Messenger will in no fashion require you to enter you "Graal Online" username and password or any other personal information instead there is a seperate database which you must open a account on. the good thing about being open source even if someone else ie : Cyber Jouerers decides to compile the code and use it for graal they can choose to have their server client communicate with all other server clients and share encrypted (PGP) database information making a more or less P2P Network between all the servers and databases. This may be already a bit confusing im not trying to confuse anyone. I will be talking with angel i want her to help with some development of the network and help administrate once were up. I will be developing 3 different clients at this time i wont be doing all of the work myself i have friends from GAIM and just IRL friends i know who will be contributing and will be credited for their work. The first client will be coded in C and will be ported to Windows, Linux & MacOX if wanted developers can port it to other platforms. Second ill be finishing the VB version but upgrading it to .NET so that the large mass of Windows Users can have a version that will tie in with current and future windows technologies and api's. The third will be a Java version which is mainly being worked on by my friend Joe who likes to sit in his closet all day coding in Java and listening to Paul Oakenfold mixes.

The Graal Network:
I have also registered some domains for this project which will not be started until Graal Messenger starts rolling out. The Graal Network will offer live chat, forums, polls, newsletters, photo albums, calendars, mail and much more all integrated into one logon called a TGN Account which can also be used to log into Graal Messenger down the road. I will also be talking to Angel about working on some of the mapped concepts i have and getting some criticism from her (i know she has some :P ) and will be speaking with other "Above Average" graal developers who code in languages other then GScript ;P
