Hi Eshan, Thanks for your interest in GSOC and in Isis itself, of course.
We had two students last year, and I mentored them (with Maurizio as co-mentor); they both built a viewer against the Restful Objects interface [1], [2]. I must admit though that I had intended to skip mentoring a GSOC project this year, and I don't think any of the other committers are interested (speak up if no!) That's not to say I don't have several ideas for projects, for example: - build a "real-life" app in some suitable domain, along with a semi-academic write-up of their learnings - to would give us another substantial example app, along with some marketing material about how learnable Isis - documentation: develop screencasts for all the various features that we have - cos people would rather watch youtube than read - to build some new off-the-shelf domain services, like the current Excel and Word mail merge ones - eg email - eg SMSing - eg Drools rules engine - to develop an integration with Lucene, for full text-search across the domain - I don't think this is a full summer's work though - to develop an oAuth integration - probably not a full summer's work though (even though I'm not exactly sure what an oAuth integration actually is) - to write a clean-room implementation of a JDO enhancer, as a replacement for the DN one, and that ideally integrates with the JRebel plugin - not really Isis-specific, but would definitely benefit the Isis community - implement "Kemble", our proposed DSL for Isis, using XTend [3] So do say if any of the above strike you as interesting. HOWEVER, since I'm less that 50:50 about being a mentor this year, I'd need to see some real commitment during the "getting to know you" phase of the programme before I decide to take it on.
