Google Summer of Code Project - Support JOOQ API within gora-sql module

[Lewis John Mcgibbney <le...@gmail.com>]

Hi JOOQ Users,

My name is Lewis, I am currently project chair of the Apache Gora project 
[0]. Very briefly, Gora is an open source framework which provides an 
in-memory data model and persistence for big data. Gora supports persisting 
to column stores, key value stores, document stores and (previously) 
RDBMSs, and analyzing the data with extensive Apache Hadoop MapReduce 
support.

This year, we've flagged an exciting project [1] with the intention of 
including it in this years Google Summer of Code (GSoC). 
The project will consist of utilizing the JOOQ API to build a gora-sql data 
store module enabling Gora users the ability to store data into the wide 
variety of supported JOOQ SQL stores.

Unfortunately time is against us and we only have 2 days until student 
proposals deadline. I am therefore asking if any students on this list (or 
if anyone knows any students who would make a good candidate(s)) would be 
interested in putting forward a proposal with the aim of taking on the 
project throughout the summer.

The Gora team has participated in GSoC the previous two years with 
excellent success and this year we already have two other projects in 
addition to the JOOQ project. 

Please feel free to contact me personally on lewismc at apache dot org if 
you are interested, or on our mailing list at CC'd in this thread or 
alternatively just reply here :)

Thanks in advance to anyone who is able to get the word out about this 
project. I am sure that if this project goes ahead both JOOQ and Gora will 
benefit significantly.

Best
Lewis
