Planning: REP File Parsing
Building an extensible file parser for legacy Debrief formats, starting with REP.
Future Debrief
Rebuilding a 25-year-old maritime analysis platform for the next generation of analysts.
What's Happening
We're rebuilding Debrief from the ground up: replacing Eclipse RCP with Python services, enabling scientists to build their own analysis tools, and introducing aggregate analysis across multiple exercises.
This site documents the journey. We're building in the open — sharing progress, problems, and decisions as they happen.
