Hello!
Greetings!
I discovered Gemini a little over a month ago, and like many others, decided to
write my own client. It's been a fun project, and it's now been a few weeks since
it reached the point where I'm spending more time browsing Gemini capsules
than writing it. Thus, I figured I should share it in case others found it useful.
I appreciate the effort, but I feel the need to tell you that the name
Titan has already been used with a Gemini related project---a upload
protocol:
https://communitywiki.org/wiki/Titan
and it has been referenced on the mailing list:
https://lists.orbitalfox.eu/archives/gemini/2020/001632.html
Just thought you should know. But other than that, it looks nice.

It's funny that we've reached the point where rocketry-related names for gemini projectsare beginning to collide. That would seem to say something about both the number ofprojects in gemini and the lack of rocketry-related names. I myself used the nametitan coincidentally also for the name of a java gemini client in like March as the finalproject for a CS course, although I named it that not only for the rocket but also tobully Java for being big and bad and eating its children and deserving of gettingbanished to Tartarus (using Java was required in the final project so I was semi-salty).
My actual question (to the list, not just you) is this: has any known site implementedTitan support besides CommunityWiki, and has any client implemented titan supportbesides Alex Schroeder's titan bash function? Last thing I knew, Titan was beingdiscussed on this list but no one had formalized anything about it yet, and even the namewas just someone's thrown-in idea that solderpunk said was better than gemini+submit andyou had said you'd keep in mind. After that if my memory can be trusted the thread flowedinto streaming discussion. Is there somewhere else (an IRC channel, another mailing list,etc) where Titan development has been discussed?
Thanks,
