Other items could be:
- convert junit tests to boost tests
- build system updates for C++ windows clients (and or Solaris)
- Create a nice demo
- Spring integration
- SOAP wrapper
- Update the Tuscany binding
- Synapse integration
...


So the question for the group is probably not if we can find interesting projects, but rather, do we want to host a student?

I would say yes, anyone disagree?

Another suggestion would be to create some strong examples that interoperate with each other and documentation to go with it. Perhaps not the most glamarous task, but it does give a student the oppurtunity to get a good idea of AMQP, the Qpid code base and how to use the software.

If we have some strong examples in all languages then it makes it easy for people to start using Qpid.
This could really help in building our community

    Hi All,

    I've had a quick look at the topics from previous years and wonder
    if any of
    the following might be appropriate & useful for Qpid:

    1. Design and implement a simple solution, runnable from the command
    line, for extracting useful JMX information from the Qpid Java Broker.
    Solution should be configurable at runtime to allow users to
    decide which
    bits of info they're interested in and when. Might be nice to see the
    information extracted in a report format.

    2. Refactor Qpid Java Broker configuration into a more elegant xml
    schema,
    with xsd, covering all existing configuration options and allowing for
    extension. Additionally implement a module to validate broker
    configuration
    files, which could be run standalone i.e. before starting a
    broker, to check
    that they're well formed and validate against the xsd.

    Not going to set the world alight I know, but my thinking was that
    both of
    these items could standalone i.e. not involve a student having to
    be closely
    tied into our development on trunk etc. I also thought they'd be
    open to a
    wide range of students, not being too obscure or complex.

    I'd be happy to mentor the second, JMX not being so much an area I
    have
    experience of.

    Hth,
    Regards,
    Marnie
