This profram was very successful for a number o JBoss porjects last year (most notably the Arquillian project).  We should brainstorm some projects that we could put forward as GSOC projects.

Definitely.

There are some of my suggestions:

• chart/gauges components
• CDK - improving build time
• automated client-side performance testing

Having further brainstormed ideas for GSOC projects, we've come up with the following shortlist:

• Charts components
  • connected with CDK improvements: JSON writing support
• Data Tables
  • js impl -> component
  • CDK improvements
• Social media integration and compoennts
  • via the Agorava project
• Bean Validation javascript library
  • Implement our client-side validation as a stand-alone library
• Refactor the CDK to use APT directly, decoupling the CDK from Guice
