Hello,
I am planning to submit an application for the upcoming Google Summer of
Code 2009
to develop a collaborative drawing/mapping application for xwiki using
GWT but with
some variation.
I intend to achieve this by developing a web front end to the Compendium
Mapping tool.
Compendium is very flexible concept mapping tool that was recently fully
open-sourced.
It is extensible through the use of 'stencils' which allow for modelling
in other modelling
languages such as UML.
I would like to know what you think about this. Your input will be very
much appreciated.
Kind Regards,
Kojo Gambrah-Sampaney.

Hi Kojo,
Thank you for your interest in XWiki. We had several attempts at this
project, and so far nothing was usable, so we're a bit skeptical about
it. To get accepted, you must really convince us that you have a strong
architecture, and that you can finish the project in time. The most
important aspect is that this is an application FOR XWIKI, so we're not
interested in a nice editor that works on its own, but something that is
tightly integrated with XWiki, meaning that it stores all its data
inside wiki documents, it works inside the XWiki UI, it takes advantage
of XWiki versioning and access rights, etc. Your proposal should put
accent on this aspect.

Hello,
I have developed a small payroll application, an assessment tool, and currently a custom
interface to openCRX using GWT. This has given me some practical insights and solutions
for building GWT applications. The use of Compendium's solid, well documented
architecture which
I have attached will cut the project time substantially. About integrating with xwiki, the
data model of Compendium can be mapped to the XWiki data model and once that is achieved
taking advantage of the versioning can follow suit.
Please take a look at the UML diagrams of Compendium here.
