The type of applications we have been thinking of=20 are for example things that would allow XWiki to have things like=20 BaseCamp or Backpack has: - project manager - better calendar - to do lists - contact manager - voting The technologies involved are Velocity (Apache) or Groovy scripting=20 (Codehaus), working with the XWiki API (it's own API) and XWiki Objects=20 and classes, a fair amount of Javascript and DHTML for really cool=20 interfaces.. Java should only be necessary for backend stuff in some=20 complex cases (we can help on these). XWiki require Java, Tomcat and MySQL for developement installation. We=20 have an easy install package on Object Web. I believe ifyou wish this project to be accepted by Google you need to=20 present a pretty ambitious plan in terms of applications, otherwise it's=20 going to be a little too 'classic'..
