I've done some more editing of the Idea page: (http://nedit.hackvalue.nl/niki/index.php/GSoC2008IdeaPage)
Primarily the following: * trying to move details from the main page to the discussion page (to keep the main page looking "clean") * on the main page, adding an advocate for each project, being the person who (afaict) suggested the project (note that the advocate may or may not be the same as the mentor Bert is our only volunteer for mentoring so far--anyone else? Anyone willing to be a back up mentor? With respect to folding, I suggested one other smaller (I hope) subproject, the thought of doing something in the spirit of extreme programming. The thought is maybe to get enough done in a small project (maybe a back end means to hide text along with the folding mark gutter and code to handle events on it, all "interfaced" to/via nedit macro functions) so that end users might enhance that capability without the immediate need for additional c programming. Although we don't have to use code that created by a GSoC project, I think it would be a real shame if we didn't. So, are there any projects listed there that someone strongly objects to (i.e., objects enough that they'd object to adding the code to the nedit codebase)? (Aside: If we get one or more GSoC students, we may have to make special arrangements for committing their code--afaict, we have to be able to identify their code separate from anything anyone else might do with it. At least one project last year had to do something along the lines of writing some code (iiuc) to go back and separate out code from their GSoC student(s).)
