If you could structure this as one contribution at a time I would be
grateful.  That way, problems with one contribution won't block others.

We also like to have an integration test for each connector.  Not all of
them have this at this time, but it's very very helpful if you have the
time to put one in place.  There are good examples for the Alfresco WS
connector and the CMIS connector and the File System connector; you can use
these as templates perhaps.

If the connectors haven't yet been ported, it's a good idea to read at
least sections of The Book.  You can see them for free here:
