Community interaction is a must in any open-software project. I'll try to be transparent, as much as possible with my project design ,status, etc by discussing it in the Tuscany mailing list. I will maintain a wiki-page of the project so that other people can track down the status of the project. I will use #tuscany IRC channel for quick chatting & will avoid discussing decisions that should be discussed in the mailing list.
I have already started a mail thread to discuss this project . You can track it here http://www.mail-archive.com/dev@tuscany.apache.org/msg06084.html
commitment
Since I'm having summer vacation I'll be able to commit my full time towards this project. I'm planning to work more than 40+ hours per week on this project.
...
I'm a 22 year old undergraduate student majoring Computer science & Engineering at the Dept of Computer science & Engineering ,university of Moratuwa , Sri Lanka.I have currently finished my third year studies & will start my final year at the end of this year.
I have been working on web-services related technologies for more than 6 months and quite familiar with the open-source development procedure. I have worked on Apache Axis2 project as my first open source project. I have contributed to it by, Enhancing its' REST capabilities using annotations based mechanism & XML based mechanism. Improving its' client API to support WSDL2.0 (improving service-client, etc ). And submitting patches.
Since I've been working with Axis2 i have a sound knowledge in technologies/specificatons/projects such as java & XMl, WSDL, XSLT, SVN, Apache-Maven, Apache-ant, WSS4J & WODEN parsers, AXIOM & JAXB. I'm very interested in community based development and web-services, and want to contribute to the open-source software more, in the future. I am sure that the previous work I have done in the web-services domain & the technologies I've been exposed by doing so, will help me a lot, to successfully complete this project.
