Hi developers !
Google has just given the tentative number of projects that XWiki will
have the chance to have sponsored under the program.
Currently I've ranked the proposals this way..
The 6 proposals that will very probably be accepted
1. A P2P XWiki
2. An Offline WYSIWYG Editor (Java) with code completion etc..
3. A Powerfull WYSIWYG Editor in DHTML or Flash
4. SVG Charting of XWiki Tables
5. Independent Query API for XWiki
6. An Agile Project Management Application
Then the following applications are rejected but I would love to have
them done. So we are thinking of making a mini-summer of code proposal
and proposing some bounties for it (not as much as Google):
1. SVG Realtime Whiteboard in Java + Mozilla SVG
2. AnyEdit: plugabble realtime editor in Java (text, image, drawing,
etc..)
3. Another P2P XWiki proposal
4. Integrate tagging and tag browsing into the XWiki environment
5. Survey and Reporting Tool (the reporting system would be generic)
6. Integrate Servoo with XWiki (OpenOffice and MS Office integration)
7. Google Maps Integration
8. A Contact Manager (PIM) application
9. A Test System for XWiki applications
Other nice stuff I've found interesting
1. MindMap Visualization of an XWiki site/set of pages (we have part
of it that has been done for a client)
2. Implement WebDAV with XWiki Basically the project
3. Wiki Syntax <-> XWiki Object Mapping
4. Easy Web Services Integration
5. Local Names implementation
We had some duplicates projects. Multiple people have proposed to
implement the Independent Query API and it would be great to have these
people as contributors for the low-level part of XWiki.
Let me know what you think and which applicaitons are the most valuable
? Are there any other applications we should provide bounties for ?
I've setup a page on
XWiki.org if you want to propose additional
projects
