[xwiki-devs] [GSoC] Mentors introduction
Hi all, I think it would be great if all mentors introduce themselves to students, the way we introduced ourselves. I hope this introduction will help all XWiki GSoC participants. --Sai Krishna.
Hi, Good idea. Let me start. I am: http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/XWiki/VincentMassol * XWiki specific ** Working on the xwiki project as a committer since 2005-2006 ** I follow the XWiki mailing lists + I'm on xwiki's IRC every day ** I'm very happy to be mentoring the Office Import GSOC project this year. This is a critical project for most enterprise usages of XWiki. Thanks -Vincent PS: This reminds me that I really need to move my blog + profile on XWiki... and have a page synthesizing all this + a FOAF profile.

Hi, I'm Sergiu (http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/XWiki/Sergiu), contributing to XWiki since 2005, when I was a Google Summer of Code student. My area of expertise contains the XWiki platform, XWiki Enterprise and the P2P/Offline/Semantic aspects of XWiki. You've probably made contact with me already, as I have been "taking care" of your SoC applications. This year I'll be mentoring the REST refactoring of XWiki, and the XWiki Offline project. I'm one of those that know the most about the platform, so whenever there's something you would like to know don't be afraid to ask me on [email protected] More about me at: http://purl.org/net/sergiu/
Right good idea ! I'm Ludovic Dubost and I'm the one responsible with most bad architecture choices that the whole community has to live with now (until we fix them) as I'm the original writer of the XWiki code. Thankfully there are now very competent coders in the XWiki team that can fix that. I'm also the one with a very heavy non coding schedule as I'm running the XWiki business (providing services, support, custom development on top the XWiki Platform and Products). My recent coding activities have been working on Curriki on the space and invitation manager with Marius and Cristian (which I'll do less now and is now more in the hands of the Workspaces team), starting XWiki Watch (now in Anca's hands), doing the WebDAV prototype (which we count on Asiri to make great). The time I still have on coding will be working on the new GWT Wysiwyg Editor with Marius. I'll be mentoring Asiri on the WebDAV project as well as co-mentor Miguel with Jean-Vincent on the Collaborative Business Drawing. What I will be most able to help on is understand the need of the users for these tools and help you integrate it well in the XWiki platform. I've also good experience with GWT now and wrote a lot of the code for it. I'll try to be as much available as possible although I know it's going to be tough. But don't be afraid and discourage and force me to spend sufficient time with you. Just make sure to detail sufficiently your proposals or questions so I can be more efficient answering.

I'm hijacking this email to highlight that even though you have a dedicated mentor you should all be communicating using the XWiki communication channels, i.e. the mailing lists and IRC. This allows any person from the xwiki community to help you. Also you should share your ideas, problems, questions, progress on the list all the time so that everyone knows what you're working on. If you don't do this then the others won't know and won't have been able to follow your work and thus it's going to be very hard thereafter to answer any of your questions or to help you and it'll make applying your patches in the xwiki code base much harder. Basically you should always communicate with the whole community as much as possible since this is the main goal of the SOC: integrate an open souirce community. You'll be judged partly on the success of the project but even more on how you interact with the community and the ultimate goal is for you to become a xwiki committer should you be interested in staying in the community beyond your project (which we'd all love you to do of course :)). Thanks -Vincent

Already started working on it :) I got your code (with few adjustments) to work with the current core and i did a test with gnome nautilus (mounted an xwiki repository into my loacal file system). Browsing is ok but need to work on editing / opening and many other DAV commands. Reading RFCs seems to be a fun work after all (i thought it would be scary). I'll make a detailed post soon. Always a pleasure to work with all of you... Thanks. - Asiri

Hi I am Anca from the Romanian XWiki team in Iaşi. For the moment I am in France, doing the second master semester in Strasbourg, but I will go home and (re)join the wonderful team there at the end of June. I have been with XWiki for around 9 months and with XWiki Watch for around 7 of them and I am now happy to welcome Cati (Ecaterina) Valica in the Watch development team as a GSoC student to work on improving user experience. I can do both Java programming and web stuff (clean html, js, css + GWT) so if you're ever in trouble with any of these, you can drop a question anytime. I hope you'll all have a nice summer with XWiki, I dare to say we're a cool team (above average) but I hope you'll convince yourself of that pretty soon. Happy coding!
Hi all,
I think it would be great if all mentors introduce themselves to students, the way we introduced ourselves.
I hope this introduction will help all XWiki GSoC participants.

Hi everybody, I am http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/XWiki/JeromeVelociter. I graduated last year from a French telecommunication school, and signed in the mean time with XWiki for my first job. Currently I'm working as lead developer for our Workspaces product (workspaces.xwiki.org). I already know two of you in real life, Caty and Edie "Enygma", who I met in Iasi where I had the chance to spend six months, when XWiki as a company opened its second office there. For this year SoC, I will mentor Aprit on the Presentation Application project. I wish you all all the best for your summer. Cheers, Jerome.

Hi, I'm http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/XWiki/ThomasMortagne. I'm working on XWiki since Jully 2007. Currently I'm working as lead developer for XWiki Enterprise Manager (manager.xwiki.org) and really working most of the time on java part of XWiki Platform. One of my last work was the new LDAP authenticator so I will be mentoring SSO and OpenID Support. I worked on most xwiki-core parts so feel free to ask me on [email protected] or irc. Good summer to all of you :) On Sat, Apr 26, 2008 at 1:09 PM, Arpit Jain <[email protected]> wrote:

Hi all, I am Fabio Mancinelli (http://www.fabiomancinelli.org). I started working at XWiki on July 2007, and now I am working part-time. My other occupation is a post-doc at INRIA about pervasive computing. At XWiki I am responsible of the XEclipse client and lately I did some contributions to the core concerning the xmlrpc subsystem. I will be mentoring Malaka Ekanayake who will extend XEclipse editors with syntax highlighting and all the features that we can find in a full-fledged editor in an IDE. I can be contacted via skype, msn (see my homepage), mailing lists and I'll be on IRC as well. Maybe I will open a blog soon... I have been thinking about it since longtime and maybe the time has come :) Good luck to al GSoCcers and have fun! Fabio
