Perhaps some brainstorming on the list about what goals would be interesting could be in place? For example, for nmap, both the Zenmap gui and the Nmap Scripting Engine started as GSoC projects. Defining some feature that is somewhat separated is probably better than general tasks.
Some ideas : - Database persistence - Lucene indexing/text searching of data - Robust interface with Selenium/Xulrunner/foo so plugins can more easily integrate with and test html/js closer to the browser (what Taras already has begun - I don't know how generic or complete that is - haven't looked at it, only noted in the mailing that it reached a PoC) /Martin Andres Riancho wrote: > List, > > Right now I don't have the time to dedicate to this important > task.
