Re: [mylyn-dev] Applying for GSoc 2010 under Mylyn
Harshana,

Congratulations and welcome to the team!

I understand that you may be busy with school over the next couple of months, but now is the time for you to start thinking about your project, set up a development workspace, become familiar with tools, and learn what it takes to contribute to the Mylyn project.  I suggest that you start by taking a look at the Mylyn contributor reference.  Think about the major components and how they'll fit together.  Feel free to evolve the wiki page that you started to reflect your thoughts.

Best regards,

David

I would like to thank all of you for your support you have given me in preparing the project proposal and your valuable comments on the proposal. 

I am looking forward to spend an exciting summer with you all.

Hi David,

Thanks a lot for the notification. As i remember this is the idea we discussed during that call last week. I also feel that this idea is challenging and would be very much interesting. I'll gather some background knowledge and come to  you with the questions. Thanks again for the notification. It's really interesting to work with the Mylyn community.

Thanks and Regards,
Harshana Martin

Harshana,

It was great to have you on the call last week, and I'm glad to hear that you're interested in a GSoc project with Mylyn.  You may be interested to know that I've just added another Mylyn-related idea, a rich editor for wiki markup.  It's a very challenging project that would have you working closely with StyledText and the Mylyn WikiText framework, supporting multiple markup languages.  

Please let me know if you have any questions,

David

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.
