[xwiki-devs] [GSoc 2009] Question regarding Anti Vandalism Filters project

Hi, Just to quickly introduce myself. My name is Anamaria Stoica, and I'm studying Computer Science at University "Politehnica" of Bucharest. I'm currently in the 5th year. (graduation year) I have a 2 year experience working with Java SE & EE on the ITerating.com platform (http://www.iterating.com) (also with JS, AJAX, HTML&CSS). The team (less than 10 members) was spread out in several countries (but mostly in Romania) and worked remotely. My working experience also includes a summer internship (in 2008) at Cresta Technology, Inc. (http://www.crestatech.com) in Santa Clara, CA. There I worked as a Software Engineer Intern. Regarding the "Anti Vandalism Filters" project, before today it had as a developer requirement Machine Learning knowledge. I loved the idea of the project since the first time I saw it, not only because of the Machine Learning component in which I have recently developed a lot of interest, but also of the project as a whole. So, my question is: does the project still imply some work on ML Algorithms, just that it isn't a strong requirement as before or has that change ? Also, will the project use some other components already developed towards this end ? Thanks in advance, Anamaria
