betabrite messenger

Initally, betabrite messenger is a merely command line utility to program a BetaBrite LED sign. However, it's goals are much more grand than that.

Add a little Java, perl, XML, cross-platform libraries, standards, LED graphics-sharing/serialization and web-enabled components and you may start to see the bigger picture.

While the primary goal is to have cool tools to hack the signs and develop a community of folks who share sign-related "stuff", I'm hoping it becomes something that will help me and others see what it takes to make something small into something very real and very useful.

Jump in with thoughts, ideas, suggestions and - especially - coding help!
