I am interested in working on some of the projects for upcoming Google
Summer of Code 2012. I wanted to know if it was possible to share more
details like expectations from the project, the deliverables etc
beforehand with me. This is so that I can prepare myself better before
actually applying for the project. For now, I am familiar with
networking concepts required and I am gradually starting to learn
python implementation and development . Please advise as to what else
skills one might need to work on the project

Sure, you can work this out with the people running the project you're
interested in - which project are you thinking of doing?

I am interested in two of the projects you offer :
First is the 'multi-resource support' in the Swift category
But the one that really attracts me a lot is the 'TCP for jingle nodes
' as i have a fair experience working with TCP and underlying link
layer protocols and related retrofitting in Tcl .Thus i really want to
go in for it !
Could you please suggest me which one to go in for in case you have
preferences for projects ?
And is the latter project too hard to implement as i feel it can be done ?
Also , i am getting familiar with the use cases for the XEP
environment used for XMPP , thereby , getting a feel of the
environment .
What steps should i take next to get more familiar ?
And where can i find the source codes to review ?
Your help would be really appreciated
-Mukund.

The Swift code is here:
The Gajim code is here:
http://gajim.org/dev.php?lang=en
You can find links to chatrooms, mailing lists, etc. on those project
websites.

For this, drop by sw...@rooms.swift.im and chat to Remko or me.

For this, jon the ga...@conference.gajim.org room and talk to Asterix.

They're for different clients (Swift and Gajim), so it really depends
on which you're more interested in, and what other students apply for.

I have no idea :)
> What steps should i take next to get more familiar ?
Chat to the people above.
> And where can i find the source codes to review ?
From the sites for the clients.

In case you mean the one listed in the Jitsi section here:
http://wiki.xmpp.org/web/index.php?title=Summer_of_Code_2012#TCP_for_Jingle_Nodes
Then feel free to drop us a note on gs...@jitsi.java.net as indicated
in the project details.

That only depends on you. If you are comfortable with Java and network
programming, you should be fine.
Cheers,
Emil

Oh yes, it's listed twice! Next time I'll search the whole page. ;-)

No problem :)
We actually discussed the TCP support with Thiago, so we should be
mentoring this together ... if we get a student and a slot of course :)

Sorry, I hadn't read further down in the list than Gajim either.

Thanks to all the mentors for the help !
I was actually referring to TCP for jingle nodes in the jitsi section .
I have gone through XEP - 0278 , Jingle relay nodes article and just
wanted to know what next to do .
Also , do i i have have an upper hand if i submit the design analysis
and a preliminary documentation with the proposal ?
In addition , i would like to make a few modifications while making
the proposal .
In case i want to apply for both the projects , i hope it is not a problem ?

Applying for multiple projects isn't a problem (although quality over
quantity). Hopefully we'll have some 'teaser tasks' for the different
projects available over the next couple of days, to give students a
chance to dip their toes in the water.

Typically, teaser tasks are small programming tasks that will help you
learn about a codebase. Naturally, if you have feedback on any of the
XEPs, please send it to the stan...@xmpp.org list.

Right, there are some Swift teasers at http://swift.im/gsoc.html
(linked to from the ideas page), but you should approach the relevant
projects (particularly Jitsi) through their mailing lists or chat
rooms or whatever to have a chat with them - they'll point you in the
right direction.
