Forking the Interactive Spaces Project

I was the initial creator of the Google Interactive Spaces project. I have really appreciated the opportunity Google gave me to develop this project and use it in the production environment of the Google Experience Centers. I learned so much and coming to work was so fun. But now it is time for a change.

I am leaving Google on February 2nd to pursue a startup. I will be forking the project to continue its evolution, the new project will be called SmartSpaces. I want to move it towards the ability to create intelligent spaces, where interactivity is only part of the picture. The code will be found at https://github.com/smartspaces-io. If you wish to follow the new project I will be discussing it here and on the discussion group smartspaces@googlegroups.com.

The code will stay in the interactivespaces namespace until February 2, after that I will change all the package names. I also plan on cleaning up a lot of the inconsistencies in the APIs that appear after 3 years of evolution.
