Hi, this was originally proposed as a google summer of code project, the
slots for gsoc have already been given out, this was not one of the
projects chosen by apache. So you could still work on this if you like,
but not under the gsoc umbrella. We (zk contributor community) would be
happy to work with you. See the following for the recipes we currently
ship with:
http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/hadoop/zookeeper/trunk/src/recipes/
You might also check JIRA, such as:
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ZOOKEEPER-767
There's still alot of work to be done in this area. Such as:
* identifying and documenting what components the library might/should
contain. See this for the current list:
http://hadoop.apache.org/zookeeper/docs/current/recipes.html
* even the existing recipes could benefit, improved documentation for
example.
* queues/locks are implemented in src/recipes, however the other recipes
are not
* add python implementations in addition to c/java?
* not all recipes are black/white, but rather there are many variations
to each. We could add these to the docs/implementation
there's probably alot more that could be done that I haven't identified,
this is fertile ground. Would be great if you were interested and would
like to contribute. Feel free to create some jiras and contribute
patches! I encourage you to move further the discussion to the
zookeeper-dev list, that's where we discuss "futures" and unreleased
software.
Regards,
Patrick

Hi
I read the page at
http://wiki.apache.org/hadoop/ZooKeeper/SoC2010Ideas saying there
would have a mentor if one would work on those projects. I am
interested in `Concurrent Primitives Library' and would like to work
on this project. Is this project still available? Or any procedure
requires to apply in order to participate in this project?
Thanks, ChiaHung
