Hi, 2007/1/26, ketty <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
I am not sure yet if i want apply. For one thing it would require me to have fairly complete plan to begin with and then stick to it. I am not good at that kind of things. :-)
:-) But that could be a good motivation to learn that kind of thing! ;-) But you are your only judge on this. But if you want a mentor, I'm ready to advise you.
And i don't know what project is accepted. Maybe it should be fairly self contained? (but interfacing/integrated with demexp)
Well, this is the extension-of-an-existing-project kind, isn't it?
If we have concrete project suggestions we could suggest them to janestcapital andor universities with courses using caml?
Maybe. But I need to allocate some time on this and my time slots are already fairly booked. :-)
(realistic ?) suggestions: * caching/relaying (sub)server to minimize load on main server.
Not very interesting right now. Before optimizing, we need a real analysis of congestion points and their cause.
* application/tools to filter/organize questions in useful manners. (could then be reused by different clients).
That would be definitely useful. For example, I find the LISFS technology very promising. They have a theoretical formalism and a prototype (GNU GPL, in OCaml) to have a tag-based search technology where you can freely mix google-like queries and unix-directory-like search. That would be a big plus for demexp to have a classification server using that technology. http://lfs.irisa.fr/index.html http://lfs.irisa.fr/demo-area/ http://lfs.irisa.fr/prototypes.html Here is an example on how it could be applied to demexp: http://www.mail-archive.com/demexp-dev@nongnu.org/msg00351.html
* various clients. (web, standalone, commandline, curses)
commandline client is already fulfilled by Thomas' Python binding. As I said previously, a web interface would be definitely useful. The standalone client could have some improvements, but I would really prefer work on a web interface.
