Excellent, do you have a URL ? > Wouldn't I be need adding codes to > sling trunk ? No. You will need to depend on the Sling Api and you can reference that as a maven dependency.

No. Your project will generate a separate osgi bundle that will be added to an instance of sling. That will probably be done via the web insole or using the sling bundle installer plugin invoked using Mvn clean install sling:install > My > codes should be basically inside the sling trunk/branch.

Even the sling committers often work in the whiteboard area ie not trunk, when developing proof of concepts. If they work they go into contrib, and if everyone wants them the bundle goes into the standalone build. We rarely add new functionality to the core bundle.
