Is there someone interested to be a mentor from OpenACS community within Tcl GSoC 2009 effort? Do you have any well defined project ideas which could be written down at
http://wiki.tcl.tk/22182.
As Matthew mentioned last year Tcl acted as umbrella organization for Tcl/Tk/AOLserver/OpenACS/XOTcl and we were given 9 slots which IMHO shows that this is the right direction.
Unfortunately last year OpenACS project "Development of an integrated, standard-complaint authoring tool for .LRN" by Nima Mazloumi wasn't funded due to too small support from the mentors - I've checked that only Matthew Burke and Gustaf Neuman voted for it to be slotted.
But we did one AOLserver and one XOTcl project which were somehow OpenACS related - but I cannot judge how successful they were.
