Hi all, I am a student who likes to take part in GSoC 2012 and I am really interested in implementing a JSR spec which is always an interesting task to do. . I think this implementation will give a better value addition to Velocity as it has a industry standard support in back_end and will allows JSR 223 clients who likes Velocity to migrate without much effort I am willing to contribute this wonderful project idea (which as since last couple of years as seems) and continue the contribution further on Velocity.
Hi Vincent, I couldn't reach to the links you provided in the JIRA[1] regarding this idea. I think the content has been removed . Hi Thomas, But I went through the specification and also downloaded the doc. Is it expected to implement the whole spec. I mean making VELOCITY a 100% compliant of JSR 223 ? It will be great if I can get to know the scope of the project and some more detail regarding the $subject so that I can understand the project in nutshell. (i.e is it expected to test the whole impl with the 223 TCK ? What are the main Velocity back end API will be used for this ? and etc). So that I can read the most important parts of the spec first and start working on a patch before GSoC application period ends. Thanks in Advance JSR 223 spec - [2] spec documentation - [3] [1] - https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/VELOCITY-735 [2] - http://download.oracle.com/otndocs/jcp/sjp-1_1-pr2-spec-oth-JSpec/ [3] - http://download.oracle.com/otndocs/jcp/sjp-1_1-pr2-oth-doc-JSpec/ -- Thanks /Dishara
