Here’s another vide that we’ve shot featuring Noam Lampert (Head of R&D) and Roei Erez (Core Team Lead). I’m Using Viddler to show this video so let me know if you have any problems watching it in the comments.

(If it says “loading” for a long time, clicking on the “Progressive” word on the bottom of the movie to change it to streaming mode)

Topics in this video:

• What’s the idea behind Grasshopper
• How does Grasshopper work?
• What types of challenges do you encounter when trying cross-compile (translate) .NET IL code to Java Bytecode?
• What does the future hold for Grasshopper?
• (for example .NET Generics Vs. Java Generics)
• (or 3rd party dependencies you need to convert)
• what kinds of tests do you have?
• Stuff I should worry about as a .NET developer that is compiling using Grasshopper
• What are you working on right now?

I’ve also added a Grasshopper TV Logo animation to start out the video (I used Sony Vegas to edit it and add the various TV related effects, although the actual logo was done by our graphics artist)
