[sakai-core-team] Please help with Sakai's Google Summer of Code 2015 application

[Neal Caidin]

I will put my ideas on the document and I'm happy to be a non-technical
mentor, but probably a technical mentor would need to join me.

My two ideas are:

1) Extending xWiki LTI integration to support Sakai groups

2) Extending Morpheus - this could either be experimentation with
optimizing for a particular device size (Morpheus will have two) or
optimizing Sakai tools to work better under Morpheus. There was a
discussion on PMC list that adding an extra device size probably is not a
wise choice at this time. Maybe the tool idea is better?

Anyway, that's all I've got in terms of ideas and ability to contribute.

Thanks!
Neal
