Thanks for the reply.

This is the link to the gdata java library http://code.google.com/p/gdata-java-client/ (link to download on the right side of the page, current version 1.12). The sources in the zip downloaded need to be ant-ed in order to generate jars that go into the gdata/java/lib folder (run 'ant' in the gdata/java folder), but beforehand you need to have javax mail.jar and activation.jar in the path specified within build.properties (default /tmp/gdata_dep). After said build operation, from within the lib folder, I need gdata-base, gdata-client and gdata-spreadsheet placed inside the classpath (optionally gdata-photos also).

That would be all... I think. Should anything be unclear / not working, there is some (sparse) documentation within gdata/doc, and some readmes in the example folders, or write me an email/im (rhadoodc on both Yahoo! and Skype).

Thanks for your time,
Radu

Plugins are located in xwiki-platform/xwiki-plugins. There are
several there. So you can simply copy an existing pom.xml file and
modify it for your need.

That said, as you're not a XWiki committer (yet), I propose that you
create your plugin in the XWiki Sandbox at
/svnroot/xwiki/xwiki-sandbox/plugins

If you're ok I'll send a vote to give you access to the Sandbox so
that you can work in there.

We all said we were ok so go for it (the only thing we said we were
not sure was for the core but as you're developing a plugin that's
fine).

I can help. Give me the list of JARs you need, their web site and the
versions to use and I'll put them in the right Maven repos.

Thanks
