Hi,
Nothing really new, just to get an idea, here is a link with some GSoC project proposals
https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/IssueNavigator.jspa?mode=hide&requestId=12314021

Google announced the participating organisation for this years summer
internship programme and as was to be expected, the Apache Software
Foundation made it once more.
It however appears to me that the Ofbiz community needs to do more to
position itself to recruit students through the programme. A good way to
do this is to come out with a list of project topics that the community
will like to see work on and also a call for mentors.
On the eclipse plugin however, I realise it is more than a tool to make
browsing ofbiz artefacts easily. I also has the really important feature
of checking constraints across artefacts. This can be used to
significantly prevent a whole class of errors. Also I think it may be
possible to use it to provide code completion in eclipse since it is
'aware' of entity definitions and Java code - an issue raised in the
brainstorming thread on the data tier.

Kojo Gambrah

Anyway as it's ASL2 licensed you can do what you want with it and even
create a new project if you want.
Also please note http://markmail.org/message/xhdgjrac6wzdlpbb
I think the best would be to keep it as a part of OFBiz...

I am taking a look at the source files for the eclipse plugin by
Anders Hessellund from here
<http://www.itu.dk/%7Ehessellund/smartemf/index.php?page=sourcecode>.
Glad to see that it is licensed under the Apache license.
Something that occurred to me was the "jurisdiction" of this project.
Is it an Ofbiz project or an Eclipse project at least by the Google
summer of code <http://socghop.appspot.com> programme.

Kojo.

Hello,
The Apache Foundation was accepted as a mentor institution in the
Google Summer
of Code programme last year and I believe the same will happen this
year.
I would like to enter the internship programme with Ofbiz when
Google starts accepting
student applications on March 18th. I have been learning and
developing with Ofbiz for almost a year.
Ideas from the community will be appreciated. I am considering
working on the ofbiz-eclipse plugin, automated testing and things
bothering on framework development.
