[mylyn-dev] Applying for GSoc 2010 under Mylyn

Hi All,

As I discussed with the Mylyn team during this week's Mylyn conference call, I am not going to prepare a GSoc proposal for the idea of "Egit integration for Mylyn". Still I am interested in that idea and would like to help the mylyn team when the development of that started.

Now there is another new interesting idea for Mylyn proposed by Mr. Steffen Pingel in the idea page[1]. That is "Hudson Integration for Mylyn". This is again very interesting for me as I am working on the Hudson and Buckminster build system for ECF[2] right now (even today) and will continue to work in the future as well. My personnel view on this project is, this is a very important proposal and will catch the eye of the most of the committers in EF since it is very inconvenient to switch between Eclipse IDE and Hudson Web front end[3] while developing code in the IDE, commit to the CVS from IDE and then switch to Web front end to check whether the code base builds fine. So if we complete this integration, most of the EF committers will start to use it and will eventually replace the web front end. Hence this project has a greater potential to widen the existing mylyn community and to serve the existing community better.  So I am glad to work on this project and hope the EF will allow me to do this project. I expect the fullest support from the Mylyn community as well.
