Hi Vincent, The way I've been describing Shindig is that it is growing into the reference implementation for gadgets.* and opensocial.*, in addition to having infrastructure pieces that make supporting those from a "container"-perspective easy (e.g. things like the Gadget Server). This will be better codified in a proposed contributor's guide that John H. and I are working on and will send to this list for review.
To your question about the social functionality, there is actually already OpenSocial reference JS files in Shindig: http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/shindig/trunk/features/opensocial-reference/ If you have your own Shindig running, make sure you've edited your sample-container.html file to point NOT at localhost, but rather at your own domain, and then simply navigate to the sample-container.html and you'll be able to see the a social gadget in action, as well as modify it's state. The sample container isn't as well documented as it should be, so ask your questions here in the meantime.
