Hi, As you know, I will apply GSOC for "Myfaces HTML5 renderkit" project. Tomorrow, I think it will be announced that ASF is accepted as a GSOC organization (I have no doubt:) ). So, I should speed up preparing my proposal and want to ask some questions. Thanks in advance and I really appreciate your help.
I see that some ideas are written at https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/IssueNavigator.jspa?mode=hide&requestId=12314021 Should I add HTML5 renderkit project there? Are these only project ideas offered by possible mentors? If so, my mentor (or I) might want to write HTML5 renderkit there. Questions below are related to each other, so you may want to answer them step-by-step in time. Citation from this<http://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/COMDEVxSITE/GSoC>wiki: > ASF expects "a list of deliverables, quantifiable results for the Apache > community, a detailed description / design document, an approach, an > approximate schedule". > 1. What should I write about deliverables? Should I write complete list of JSF components? Other than that? 2. Approach? What will be my approach? Considering this mail<http://old.nabble.com/-GSOC--HTML5-Renderkit-Start-up-td27748075.html>(thanks to Leonardo and Jakob), are these good?: A new component set with target HTML5 and JSF 2. Write all possible components, even if duplicates some existing components.(ie hx:inputText, but not hx:form since <form> HTML element is not changed with HTML5) Use myfaces builder plugin Any other stuff? 3. Schedule? Ok, this is related to deliverables and will be answered after question #1. But, there will be midterm evaluations in mid-July. So, IMHO, a milestone would be fine at that time. But what can be the goals and the content of milestone? 4. Where should I put my proposal? Is http://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/COMDEVxSITE/GSoC good? You can answer this after announcement of acceptance status of ASF. I will share my proposal draft with you later. Then we can talk about some details.
