> I have been using Apache Commons SCXML Engine for more than two years,Now i 
> have an idea to improve it, and I wanted to post it and see if there would be 
> any interest in it in the Apache SCXML community. If possible, i want to hold 
> it as a GSoC(url:http://socghop.appspot.com/) open source project.
> The basic idea of the project is to create a Eclipse based visual editor and 
> debugger for SCXML which can also generate SCXML statechart to Java code.
>  
> State Chart XML (SCXML) is currently a Working Draft published by the World 
> Wide Web Consortium (W3C). SCXML provides a generic state-machine based 
> execution environment based on Harel State Tables. SCXML is a candidate for 
> the control language within multiple markup languages coming out of the 
> W3C.It is very useful to handler complex status transfer logic,but if a SCXML 
> file is really so huge and complex,it will become too difficult to maintain 
> and refactor or to test its logic validity.
>  
> This project is to develop a Eclipse plunge-in visual editor which is capable 
> of showing a graphical representation of the process model and allows for 
> adding breakpoints to activities, variable modifications and managing the 
> debugging process for SCXML.I have already done some work on both SCXML and 
> Eclipse GMF,even i tried to implement a SCXML editor using GMF and got a 
> little achievement,so i want to develop this editor with GMF and have enough 
> confidence to finish it.
> Usually,State Chart XML file will be running on a SCXML engine(for example, 
> our Apache Commons SCXML),if some one only want to achieve the SCXML file's 
> business logic,but do not want to or can not use some SCXML engine due to 
> licence problem etc,this tool can export SCXML file's logic to executeable 
> Java code which has the same state logic translation with the SCXML file.
>  
> This is my mainly idea and Rahul Akolkar told me this is a good idea,but he 
> has another GSoC project to mentor already, so he can not mentor me, and he 
> suggested me come here to find some proper mentor.
> So,if anyone has any questions or comments, or would be interested in 
> mentoring this project, please let me know,you can send me an Email, my mail 
> address is ustbco...@gmail.com.thanks.
