-If you are interested helping out with Étoilé, there is still a lot of work 
to be done that we would be glad to have help with.  This section contains a 
few project ideas.  If you want to know more about any of these then come and 
visit our [SILC room](silc://silc.etoile-project.org/etoile) or send a message 
to our mailing lists, [etoile-discuss](mailto:etoile-disc...@gna.org) or 
[etoile-dev](mailto:etoile-...@gna.org).

 All projects will require some basic knowledge of the Objective-C 
Cocoa/OpenStep API's. If Étoilé sounds like the project for you but you 
aren't familiar with these technologies, we will be happy to help you get 
comfortable. See [First Steps into Étoilé and GNUstep 
Programming](/news/archive/2007/07/20/1300/) for some starting points.

 Short Description: EtoileUI is a reflective UI framework based on a uniform 
tree of UI objects, it implements many Étoilé high-level UI features like 
Pick & Drop, Pluggable Layouts, Composite Document etc. This is a broad project

implementation of EtoileUI.

 Short Description: PhotoManager is a simple application for managing 
photographs, written in Smalltalk using EtoileUI and CoreObject.
 Difficulty: 3/5
 Milestones:
-  - Task: Fix the stack/unstack operations in EtoileUI, which allow setting a 
temporary layout on a particular group of items. They can be used to give an 
"exploded" view of a group which might normally be drawn as an opaque folder 
icon, giving a very generic implementation of stacks in Aperture.
+  - Task: Implement stack/unstack operations similar to Aperture. They would 
give an "exploded" view of a group, by switching the layout set on it. For the 
"exploded" view, the layout would a either ETFlowLayout or a new 
ETSpreadStackLayout (based on ETComputedLayout). 
     Time to Complete: 2 Weeks
   - Task: Add a full-screen layout to EtoileUI to support viewing a slideshow 
of the images.
     Time to Complete: 1 Week

gPhoto library. Write both a simple Objective-C wrapper around gPhoto, and a 
CoreObject subclass which presents the photographs on the camera as a 
CoreObject group

-Title: Rewrite AddressKit and BookmarkKit to use CoreObject
-Short Description: Both contacts and bookmarks are concrete domains that map 
readily to the semi-structured data model of CoreObject. This task will involve 
rewriting AddressKit and BookmarkKits as thin layers above CoreObject. 
Compatibility with Apple’s AddressBook framework will need to be maintained 
in case of AddressKit. In both cases, the code must include a simple test suite.
-Difficulty: 3/5
-Milestones:
-  - Task: Implement ABPerson as a COObject subclass, then ABGroup and 
ABAdressBook as COGroup subclasses. ABRecord won't be their superclass but the 
inherited methods can be added directly to ABPerson, ABGroup and ABAddressBook. 
Alternatively ABRecord can be implemented and used as a mixin.
-    Time to Complete: 1 Month
-  - Task: Implement ABMultiValue and ABMutableMultiValue as an NSArray of 
ETKeyValuePair.

-  - Task: Create a people picker view with EtoileUI and write an 
ETCompositeLayout subclass that encapsulates the item tree that represents the 
UI. You can also reimplement ABPeoplePickerView around the UI built with 
EtoileUI.
-    Time to Complete: 3 Weeks
-  - Task: Rewrite BKBookmark as a COObject subclass. Remove BKGroup and use 
COGroup instead. Remove BKBookmarkStore. Remove BKBookmarkQuery and 
BKBookmarkSearchResult; NSPredicate will be used instead.

-Title: CalendarStore on top of CoreObject
-Short Description: The Calendar Store API that Apple introduced with 10.5 is 
very simple, and now that we have declared properties working with clang it 
would  be pretty simple to implement it on top of CoreObject. Parsing  
iCalendar files is pretty simple (they're like vCards; trivial key- value 
pairs, you can parse them with NSScanner). Leave the remote calendar source 
stuff for now, and let people provide plugins for things like CalDAV / MS 
Exchange calendars if they're sufficiently motivated.
