[xwiki-devs] Survey Application
Hai Ludovic. I liked to continue the survey application project even if I not selected to GSOC. If you give me a chance I can show my commitment to the Xwiki. If I'm on the project. I would like to know about the following points. 1. Ideas that need to change in my application. 2. How the milestone plan should be adjusted based on the above ideas complexity. 3. Changes that need to be done with the mockups that I had created. Its better if I can have a mentor who can guide me to this target. Also I would like to thank all the community members of the Xwiki. I gathered lots of experience to my life during past month.This is my first FOSS community involvement. If something went wrong from me please forgive me. I don't want to loose this connections that I had build with those great people. So Good luck Xwiki...

Great Chathura, I'd be very happy to mentor you on the survey project. The first thing that I've been thinking of is that we should try to first take a lighter task than full survey. We should start by doing the Document Type Manager. It is more general than a survey and does not initially need to reporting. We should then build the Survey Manager on top of the Document Type Manager. I've started to create some mockups for the Document Type Manager http://incubator.myxwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Mockups/DocumentTypeManager I suggest we discuss them on the list and enhance them until we have a clear idea of how the UI would be, and how the Survey Manager would derive from the Document Manager. Maybe there will be different code, maybe we'll be able to have them share the same code (that would be ideal). In my view a survey is just a specific type of "document type" with additional options for launching the survey and reporting it. If this is fine with you, I think we should follow the same process as other GSocers. You should do the community bonding period. This means discuss with the team your project here but more importantly get used to the XWiki platform and code. You need to install XWiki and takeover some simple bugs from JIRA that are related to the technologies used in your project. Sergiu would you have some bugs that are velocity/xwiki classes based ?

I have created a filter for easy issues: http://jira.xwiki.org/jira/secure/IssueNavigator.jspa?mode=hide&requestId=10... The "Templates and User Interface" component has some velocity issues. It doesn't list all the easy issues, just a few I encountered in the last week. -- Sergiu Dumitriu http://purl.org/net/sergiu/

Are you sure this is a filter ? It does not seem to load the right stuff for me Ludovic
The "Templates and User Interface" component has some velocity issues.

Ok I understood it has all components.. Maybe this one is a good start: XWIKI-3677 The "XWiki has a default limit of around 10Mb for attached files." error message is not enclosed in a #startmessagebox() macro Then maybe we can fix a pit the Poll.. The main issue with the Poll is the scalability (it should support concurrent users responding) Ludovic -- Ludovic Dubost Blog: http://blog.ludovic.org/ XWiki: http://www.xwiki.com Skype: ldubost GTalk: ldubost

I added the patch relevent to the JIRA issue that gave to me. http://jira.xwiki.org/jira/browse/XWIKI-3677 If the patch is ok then what will be the next step or issue that I have to work on. ~ Chathura Prabuddha Ganegoda~ Undergraduate, Department of Computer Science & Engineering, University of Moratuwa, Sri Lanka. http://gacpganegoda.blogspot.com/

Hi Chathura, I applied the patch last night, and I see the Ludovic gave you another issue to work on. Developers get emails for every change on Jira, so there's no need to announce when you attach a patch. Please create a space+blog on gsoc.myxwiki.org, so that it will be easier to share information with other students and mentors. For example, you could describe the XWiki request/response workflow. -- Sergiu Dumitriu http://purl.org/net/sergiu/

I would like to give a start-up on this.Can you point out the what are the lighter task that I have to focus on doing the Survey manager. I finished the two of the JIRA issues which was appointed to me. I feel that it will be better if I start on this while fixing some JIRA issues.So I would like to work on another JIRA issue while initialising the project related stuffs as you mentioned in the previous mails.Just give me some initialisation to the project and a another JIRA.
