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

[Adam Marshall]

*I just had a look at the wiki page and had a couple of comments.

Surely #1 ("Better integration with Google Calendar and other calendar services") has been satisfied by Oxford's Private URL work that's already in 2.10? In My Workspace, every student has a link in the Schedule tool to generate a URL that points to an ICS file of all their calendar events. 

It is NOT integrated with the Dashboard tool though.

#5 - we have done some work on Portal search. Look at

     https://github.com/ColinHebert/Sakai-Search2/tree/master/api
     https://github.com/ColinHebert/Sakai-Search2/tree/master/impl

#8 would be brilliant!

Shall I add the following (mentored by Oxford)?

#10 rewrite the CK Edit "Resource Browser plug-in" (for want of a better term). As I understand it, the current browser is modified from an FCK plugin 9and to my mind) could look better. Perhaps we could all more functionality?

Adam

I have submitted the organizational application for Sakai. Thanks to everyone who volunteered to mentor and proposed some projects:

https://confluence.sakaiproject.org/display/MGT/Google+Summer+of+Code+2015+ideas+list

Again, I'd to get some more names on that page, so remember that pretty much anyone who has been working on Sakai can be a mentor. You can even work in groups of mentors.

Seth
