I am the GSoC mentor of the Clone Digger project, the tool for finding
duplicate code in programs on the abstract syntax tree
level(http://clonedigger.sourceforge.net).
There is one student willing to develop the Eclipse plug-in during Google
Summer of Code.
The key point is that it is easy to add the support of new languages to
this tool, I plan to add Java, C, PHP, etc.. Thus, it's better to take
this proposal out of the PSF umbrella, because it is not fully
Python-specific.
Whom should I consult about hosting this project under the Eclipse
Foundation umbrella? There were several good reviews from the Python
programmers, I think that a lot of Java programmers, C programmers, PHP
programmers will be grateful for developing this plug-in.
The student is really talented, and she has some experience in developing
Eclipse plugins.
