Bruno P. Kinoshita commented on COMMONSSITE-103:
------------------------------------------------

Found this issue while I'm searching for another issue. I think it can be 
closed as nobody is tracking it in our side at the moment (looks like there was 
some activity by 2018, but better to re-open it later then to leave it open 
without people to comment/reply, IMO).

> [Apache Commons|https://commons.apache.org/] is a project that manage a 
> series of independent Java libraries called 
> [components|https://commons.apache.org/components.html]. 
> Some of the perhaps most well known components include 
> [commons-io|https://commons.apache.org/proper/commons-io/], 
> [commons-lang|https://commons.apache.org/proper/commons-lang/], 
> [commons-collections|https://commons.apache.org/proper/commons-collections/] 
> and [commons-cli|https://commons.apache.org/proper/commons-cli/]
> But did you know that Commons is also managing some more specialized 
> components like 
> [commons-crypto|https://commons.apache.org/proper/commons-crypto/], 
> [commons-numbers|https://commons.apache.org/proper/commons-numbers/], 
> [commons-rng|https://commons.apache.org/proper/commons-rng/] and 
> [commons-rdf|https://commons.apache.org/proper/commons-rdf/] ?
> The potential GSOC student will propose an idea to work with one or more 
> chosen Apache Commons components to churn through any outstanding Jira 
> issues, update for Java 8/9, improve web site, documentation or testing.
> As the appropriate GSOC mentor will depend slightly on which Commons 
> component the student is interested in, prospective students are encouraged 
> to engage early by subscribing and posting to 
> [dev@commons|https://lists.apache.org/[email protected]] 
> using the subject tag [GSOC] and the  commons  component(s) they are intested 
> in, e.g.

> Subject: [GSOC] [Crypto] Potential GSOC idea
> Hi, I am Alice, student at Foo university, and I am interested in GSOC for 
> Apache Commons, in particular Commons Crypto as I have been quite involved in 
> cryptography protocols over the years together with my friend Bob.
> What could be a good chunk of work to get started with? Perhaps adding 
> support for rot13?
