Hi, Well first of all I appreciate that people are working on our code and improve it. You don't automatically get a committer simply because you are accepted by Google and Eclipse as a summer of code student.
Like Nicolas also mentions your project proposal doesn't say anything about Nebula though from your description it might indicate that you might contribute to Nebula and not SWT (nor is it part of http://wiki.eclipse.org/Google_Summer_of_Code_2009_Ideas or did I miss it). I remember seeing this proposal and immediately asked myself: Is this coordinated with the Project-Team(s) from SWT => Did you write a mail to swt-dev before proposing your project for SoC? => Did you write a mail to nebula-dev before proposing your project for SoC I didn't asked myself the second question until now that you show up here :-) This is nothing personal and I'd like to give you a warm welcome and ideally all your code flows back to Eclipse (whether it is SWT or Nebula) but we currently have no resources dedicated to such a task (pretending we could dedicate resources which not the case for nebula because none of us is employed to work on it) Another thing IIRC is that your project code has to be hosted on code.google.com but the SoC people from Eclipse.org know this better and then flows back to us when the project has ended. So there are many open ends and I'm not sure how to proceed. Maybe some questions: * Do you create new cool widgets => We are open for contributions of new widgets and once you have code in your code google repository and the code is testable you can point us to it. * Do you plan to enhance existing widgets => Where do they live currently in SWT, Nebula, ... . - SWT: SWT and Nebula-Committer need to get to gether and decide what to do if SWT refuses to add fix in their code we here at nebula need to decide if we think this widget makes sense to us => Simply cloning code over from SWT and maintaining an SWT-Fork is a no go! - Nebula: As mentionned file bugs and attach patches Tom zhong nanhai schrieb: > I am accepted as a Google Summer Code student for Eclipse > Foundation.And the project I will be working on is 'Nebula'.I'm > confused how should I submit my code if I have finished my work. > As you say,I should submit many bugs to be a committer,and then you > may accept me.If I'm not accepted as an 'Nebula' committer,how does > Google evaluate my gsoc work after this summer code activity? > > Regards, > higer > _______________________________________________ > nebula-dev mailing list > [email protected] > https://dev.eclipse.org/mailman/listinfo/nebula-dev _______________________________________________ nebula-dev mailing list [email protected] https://dev.eclipse.org/mailman/listinfo/nebula-dev
