[xwiki-devs] XWiki Jabber, Google Talk, Skype Integration
Hi, I would like to work on this idea for my experience, I would like to come up with a GWT application and then integrate it with XWiki. As I have already planned I use these days to get familiar with GWT and XWiki more and this would be great experience for my future career as I have been mostly doing mobile application development nearly about an year now. There fore, I thought contributing to this would help me to learn a lot. And it would be a great opportunity for a student like me to contribute to such big opensource work. I would love to stay with the community and use my all available time towards this work, while doing other work. Thanks, *H.T.M.

You are most welcome. I'll be glad to help you out because this is one of the projects I had my eye on ;) One very important thing to remember is to keep in touch with the community. Whenever you are in trouble, whenever you need to make a decision, whenever you need us to review / test your work, just drop a mail.. :) Thanks. - Asiri
Hi, I have few questions on my work and also I would like to fix some JIRA issues that would help me specifically in development of this idea. I have studied some aspects of test-driven-development and also just started with GWT as I get some free time. I would like to initially like to develop kind of a GWT application that can display a list of contacts once user logs in to an jabber account. for example gmail I got few questions here, I would get some answers initially. - I could come up with a GWT app and then I can integrate with XWiki. I think this is possible as there alreay exists a draft document on this. *- How can I get notified when some user logs in to xwiki ? I think I would be able to solve this once I get more idea on XWiki. Like to get some kind of JIRA issue on this to get more idea ??* - As we planned in proposal for each XWiki user we would give a jabber account in our local jabber server, either Openfire or eJabberd we could use any opensource Jabber/XMPP server.

Yes, that would be a good start.

I'd advise you to start thinking about the integration first. Developing outside XWiki makes it hard to integrate at the end.

I created http://jira.xwiki.org/jira/browse/XWIKI-3697 for you. You should look at the observation component: http://svn.xwiki.org/svnroot/xwiki/platform/core/trunk/xwiki-observation/ For the moment, there are only a few event senders, look at xwiki-core/src/main/java/com/xpn/xwiki/XWiki.java, the save and delete methods.
- As we planned in proposal for each XWiki user we would give a jabber account in our local jabber server, either Openfire or eJabberd we could use any opensource Jabber/XMPP server.
You should evaluate the alternatives, and make a document listing the advantages and disadvantages they have, like: - features - ease of use of the API - how mature is the library? - how many developers? - recent activity on their mailing list and in their issue tracker - license used Then, you should send this document to the devs list, and we can vote on what is the best option. This will take a while, but it is an important decision. -- Sergiu Dumitriu http://purl.org/net/sergiu/
