Thanks Dan, I've just added the idea of a forge plugin to generate RHQ [1] plugins to the GSOC ideas page under the RHQ project. RHQ already has a "homegrown" plugin generator [2], but this is not as nice as Forge and also could be enhanced to "interact" with the application code; the Forge plugin could offer to add code points where some application specific metrics are exported and then the RHQ plugin generated by Forge would already have all the hooks to pick up those metrics.

The barrier to getting started is reasonable, plugin ideas can branch out in almost any direction, and the whole goal of Forge is to grow the plugin community. For more advanced students, there's even an opportunity to work on the core. > > What do you need to do to invite GSoC students to the Forge party? > > It's pretty simple. Go to the GSoC 2012 ideas page [1], copy the idea proposal template and fill in the details with your idea. Submissions for mentoring organizations (e.g., JBoss) are due on Friday, so we need those ideas listed there by then (there may be leeway, but I can't be sure). > > [1] https://community.jboss.org/wiki/GSOC12Ideas > > It doesn't take long.
