I think this is excellent idea! There are also tons of tasks that one can
contribute that aren't directly tied to framework development like
examples library, example / best practices applications and
documentation etc. to
name a few that can be used to drive people in.
I would add new components and mixins (specially more visually
sophisticated and specialized ones) and certain issues in JIRA to your
list.
Expecting students to make contributions to the core frameworks (core and
ioc) is too much, but we can entice them to write nice looking, dynamic,
Javascript-heavy components and mixins. ;)
Even without commmiting access they can help in many ways. We could set up
something like the T4s contrib project in GitHub or other SCM provider and
then incorporate the best additions in T5, giving the proper credit to
them.
Depending on the skill level of the mentee they could do some jira
hunting and/or even separate library programming? (Meaning integration
libraries to some technologies which could be voted upon?)
Integration with other libraries would be something very interesting to
Tapestry and to them, as they would learn something new by using them.
