We 've just applied as a mentoring organization for the Google Summer of Code 2011, but have unfortunately not been accepted this year. Perhaps 2012 ?
Here a couple of project ideas students could pick from / expand upon. Feel free to suggest more in comments. Whether we're accepted or not will be known by March 18th

Let's keep this page opened, maintain and improve it. Some projects will still be opened for the next Summer of Code, and it can also serve as an ideas page for other projects, for anyone willing to get involved with Magnolia. |
Projects will require a decent knowledge of Java and various libraries, as well as a good understand of web applications. TODO: details
Necessary Magnolia introduction/training can be provided by the mentor.
Subversion and Maven experience a plus, but shouldn't be too much of a burden.
Unless otherwise stated, students will be mentored by Greg. TODO: details
In no particular order:

Our recently born forge is a one-stop shop for developers, where they can develop/host their modules. Our "store" (integrated in the Magnolia AdminCentral, but also visible at http://store.magnolia-cms.com) is currently manually maintained; we'd love for modules to be automatically published in the store.

Removing this idea for now, as this might have to be implemented earlier for a customer project OpenSocial and OAuth integrationWe currently have an OpenSocial integration module, allowing OpenSocial gadgets to be embedded in Magnolia pages. (see Magnolia OpenSocial Container). It's currently lacking oauth integration, which would allow "protected" gadgets to be embedded. As a typical use-case, we'd like to embed Jira gadgets, showing results relevant to the user looking at the Magnolia page. |
OpenSocial
We currently have an OpenSocial integration module, allowing OpenSocial gadgets to be embedded in Magnolia pages. How about exposing some Magnolia functionality as gadgets too ? (usage stats, various feeds, ...)
Social publishing
The current publishing in Magnolia publishes documents/pages between Magnolia "author" and "public" instances. It would be neat if users had the ability to publish stuff to social networks (twitter, facebook, reddit, ... but also youtube or flickr for instance) from within Magnolia as well.

There are plethoras of potential module ideas out there, we're sure you could come up with something we haven't thought of writing down here. Impress us and come up with integration ideas we haven't thought of !
(random hint: we did think of Wave, but have no idea what to do with it)
