Historical Information
The Symphony Desktop Client Framework (aka Minuet) has been open sourced to the Foundation.
The Technology was originally built by GS (named Paragon) and was contributed to the Foundation
Rationale
Minuet should be differentiated from the Symphony desktop client application – the desktop client is an HTML application that is hosted within Minuet (or the Browser). Minuet uses a number of OSS projects and is based on CEF.
...
The working group is concerned with concrete functionality of the Minuet Framework, its technical APIs and its integration capability and not the Symphony specific application hosted within it.
Objective(s)
The group will act as the stewards steward of the Minuet Desktop Framework and integration capability, agreeing on the contribution mechanism and any other open source mechanics, and governing contributions as necessary.The The group will also guide developments of Minuet to make it as attractive as possible in order to encourage adoption.
The group will seek to guide and governance the Minuet APIs, with a specific goal to improve consistency for integration with other similar technologies and in the wider context help to drive standardisation across the financial services industry such that applications such as Symphony might be hosted in different containers/frameworks.
