[zackchen]

Hi everybody。I am JacquesChen，when I begin study OpenSEES，I can not found a tool to build model，so I create OSLite.
I want share it to much people.OSLite is a free,lightweight,developing visualization program for OpenSees.
In this form，i can not post images.I create a page introduce OSLite.

Great news!
Do you think to release the source code under an opensource license (GPL for example) or only the binaries?

I have tried the oslite you sent me. It's good. It displays models faster than OpenSeesNavigator.
Before receiving your oslite, I displayed my model by my Python code (using Python and Matplotlib)
I also want a linux version of oslite.
What programming code do you use? Do you mind releasing your source code to us on Github?

(Sorry I cannot type Chinese on this computer)

OSLite is developing.
when i finish vision 1.0, i will consider your suggesetion.
I use C++ develop OSLite.
A few day,I find a lit of bug.Now debuging.
Can you open OSLite now?i do not know why you can not open my website.My web site use a vpn in Australia
（PS：I am not good at English）

I work in the design company, so my own work will take me a lot of time. If I have free time I will spend time developing OSLite. So OSLite will update very quickly. Today, I fixed several bugs and released version 0.16。

I can open your website now.
Thank you very much for developing OSLite

Dear Zackchen,

I have downloaded the latest version. However, I failed to read the ReadMe file, possibly due to Chinese characters. Can we have a completely English version of the file?

Thanks a lot.
