Hi All, I'm Visitha Baddegama, a final year undergraduate from the Department ofComputer Science and Engineering, University of Moratuwa, Sri Lanka. This time I'm planning to contribute XWiki Project under Google Summer of Code 2013.
I am fluent in Java, C# languages,and Web technologies. And I was a student of GSOC 2012 under the DocBook project [1] and sucessfully completed it [2]. By working on that project I got deep knowledge in technologies like XSLT, XML, JavaScript, HTML, Ant, Make, JQuery and CSS. And because of I have developed lot of Android and Phonegap apps, I am familiar with HTML5, CSS, JavaScript and JQuery mobile too. At the end of last November, I joined to OwnCloud [3] (An Open source personnel cloud) community and already I have developed few important features to OwnCloud's messaging app, calendar app and files app. I went through the GSOC 2013 idea page [4] of XWiki and found several very interesting projects. Among all of them, I am looking forward to work with "Improve the Messaging Feature" project. As our department group project, we have already developed very similar features to OwnCloud messaging app too. There we improved to display unread inbox message count on the top of message app icon and improved it to display messages as conversations in smart phone. And we tried to integrate it with FB/Google chat application. Therefore I have huge eager to apply to this project and have a good confidence that I can successfully complete this project and give my whole strength to this project. I will send you a proposal including how I am going to develop this project. I think we can add few additional features to messaging app other than expected functionality too. Please guide me to next steps of this project. And I warmly welcome any advices and guidance from you to improve my knowledge in this project. I successfully integrated XWiki to my machine using this [5] and now I am gathering more knowledge in XWiki and its features. Looking forward to be a part of XWiki community. Thanks in Advance..!!
