Re: [gsoc] GSOC Students, what excites you? (Anil Saldhana)
by Jevgeni Zelenkov
Hi Anil,
here is my very honest answer to the question:
for (String s : new String[] {"a)", "b)", "c)", "d)"})
{
System.out.println(s + " Yes");
}
Best Regards,

[gsoc] Improved plan on Ticket Monster project for GSoC 2012
by Khobaib Chowdhury
Hi,
I have submitted my proposal on Online Ticket Reservation System already.
For last few days, I have tried hard to improve my proposal. I have
prepared my plans in more detail & as I can't edit the proposal now, I am
leaving comment in my proposal page and also sending a mail to the group.
I know its the eleventh hour to improve my proposal but I am a fresher in
JBoss org as well as Open Source Platform. For last few days, my only goal
was to configure my eclipse with JBoss tools, specially JBoss As and m2e
plugins and then understand the code flow. When I stuck in an issue for
hours, I felt frustrated but every time I have overcome & proceed further,
this surely shows how enthusiast I am to contribute in Open Source. My
eclipse is now fully ready to go.
*Bugs in WIP Ticket Monster*
While understanding the use cases that implemented already, I have found
some bugs. I must fix them before I start implementing new features. Here
are the bugs I have found ->
1. If we browse by events, then when we want to browse by venues, we can't
add tickets after selecting section & vice versa.
2. If we select "Book tickets" from Events page & then select a venue from
the next page or "Find shows" from venues page & then select an event, then
in "When?" display box, sometimes the time & date field is blank & no menu
can be selected. It's an inconsistency.
3.The Checkout button doesn't work.
4. The Back button sometimes doesn't work as usual. As an example, when we
browse through events & then select Venues -> Find shows -> select event,
time & date -> order tickets then from select tickets menu, if back button
is pressed, it doesn't work.
*Preliminary Use cases for my proposal*
*Please check the attachment for my proposed use cases.* It is not a
permanent one, It may change from time to time after the project starts.
*Additional proposal (Improvement of my proposal)*
I haven't stated these two feature in my previous proposal, but now I wish
to implement it.
1. An event calendar that shows all upcoming event on the home Page should
be welcomed. Web users will watch the calendar, view event details by
clicking on the desired date/event.
2. I prefer a graphical seat allocation chart from where user can select
their seat while booking. The available & unavailable seats should be
distinguished by two different color.
Hope this will help you to understand my proposal in some extent. Any
comment/ suggestion would be appreciated.

[gsoc] Mentors - Action Items for this week
by Anil Saldhana
Hi Mentors,
this week, we should work on finishing the grading of proposals.
Also, kindly let me know (by emailing me directly) as to why you think
your idea needs to have a GSOC jboss slot this year. We have a finite
number of slots (to be finalized this week) and a large number of GSOC
Ideas. Not every idea will get a gsoc slot this year.
If you display adequate passion with your idea and are teamed up with a
great student, I can work to see non-gsoc options to fulfill your
aspirations, if we are unable to match you with a gsoc slot.

[gsoc] A great proposal for a JaCoCo Jenkins plugin
by Jonathan Fuerth
Wow, it looks like we have way too many high-quality proposals for the 5 spots that have been allocated to us this year.
I just wanted to draw attention to the one project I've volunteered to mentor, a Jenkins plugin for the JaCoCo code coverage measurement tool (billed as the natural successor to Emma):
http://www.google-melange.com/gsoc/proposal/review/google/gsoc2012/ognjen...
The student has been a great communicator and very responsive during the drafting and review of his proposal. 10/10 for interaction skills. He's got a solid plan as well as some personal experience in CI and build automation.
I know competition is stiff; I'm just speaking up to ensure this project gets its fair chance and doesn't slip under the radar.
Good luck to everyone.
