I couldn't find a way to prevent pinging from going off automatically. No idea if it's possible per-post in current WPs, even. Nice post btw! Hi, thanks for the patch, released v1.1 now.

Your project is also interesting and mobile delivery is a very hot topic; both preparing the content (bitrate, summarization, etc) and allowing intuitive interactions (voice, image CBIR, long-term relevance learning). Good luck and I'll keep a tab on your progress, too! Thanks for a second perspective.

Regarding sharing notes, I also normally use the open repository provided by my university to publish the course notes and thesis from my students. The technological platform used there is DSpace from MIT and HP, which is supposed to guarantee the durability of the DOI and digital formats. On a more experimental side, I have directed some thesis focus on video delivering over IP based on open formats and software. Las year the first version for web browser interface was launched. We expect to release a new version in Summer with support for TV Set Top Boxes and, next Fall, to work on the mobile phone interface. More details on my students' blog: http://bitsearch.blogspot.com/ Thanks for posting all these briefings, I read all of them on the Google Reader for iPhone and learning from them.

Yes, you can compute a solution ahead of time -- at least you can assess *if* your car will fit. Just make sure that the diameter of your car (from your rear left tail-light to front right head-light -- reverse if you're somewhere <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Left_hand_drive#Countries_with_left-hand_traffic" rel="nofollow">British</a>) is smaller or equal to the distance between all points between car 1 front bumber and car 3 rear bumper (i.e. the front left of car 1 and back right of car 3). As for the number of moves, that depends on how aggressive you are and how many dents you can tolerate ! Thanks for the interest and interesting question.

I wonder though, is there any way to assess the feasibility of the perpendicular parallel parking before actually doing it? Coz it involves many times of fine steering.
