Hi, I have two proposals for GSOC:
Subject ID: directory-slp-da Title: Implement Directory Agent (DA) in SLP ASF Project: Directory - [WWW] http://directory.apache.org/ Keywords: java,ldap,slp Description: A DA stores service informations and exchanges those service informations with other DAs located on the same or different subnet. Service Agents (SA) and User Agents (UA) either register or obtain services at a DA. The Apache SLP implementation misses Directory Agent (DA) functionality. See [WWW] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Service_Location_Protocol Possible Mentors: Jan Rellermeyer, Markus Kuppe Status: Subject ID: directory-slp-ipv6 Title: Implement the IPv6 support in the Apache DS SLP provider ASF Project: Directory - [WWW] http://directory.apache.org/ Keywords: java,slp,ipv6 Description: SLP allows service discovery in network both with a central directory agent (DA) and in multicast mode. There is an RFC 3111 to support IPv6 with SLP. The idea of this project is to implement this IPv6 support and the changes described in the RFC to map the SLP scopes to different multicast addresses. See [WWW] ftp://ftp.rfc-editor.org/in-notes/rfc3111.txt Possible Mentors: Jan Rellermeyer Status: Comments are welcomed. Cheers, Jan. ------------------------------------------------------------ ETH Zurich, MSc Jan S.
