Hi Savitha, Paul
Re GSoC, check out the timeline [1]. We're just finishing the "Would-be
student participants discuss application ideas with mentoring
organizations." period and, beginning with March 26 19:00 UTC, the actual
"Student application period opens."
So, Savitha, you can soon start to officially apply. Just make sure, as
Paul mentioned above, you get to show us some of your code before the
student application period ends (6th of April).
Thanks,
Eduard

Savitha,
a good idea for this project would be to attack the Lucene plugin. A
relatively old plugin of XWiki which offers good services but has a few
drawbacks.
You could then review a bit the bugs related to it to see:
- if you could suggest fixes.
- if you could respond by saying "look my solr will respond to it"
E.g. XWIKI-6226 ?

PS: I forgot to say, your academic profile looks ok to my eyes wrt the
expectations.

Savitha,
I am not very experienced in the working of of Google Summer of Code.
As far as I know, we are now in a period where you need to prove your
skills.
- please answer the little questionnaire
- please try a checkout of the solr component that Fabio started and see
if you
can enhance it a little. The simplest is to do a pull request, I
think; we want to see it.
