[jira] [Commented] (RAT-130) GSOC Port Apache Rat to New Languages, Integrate With New Build Systems

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/RAT-130?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13614124#comment-13614124 ] 

Ishan somasiri commented on RAT-130:
------------------------------------

So are you suggesting to port Rat to a totally new language or a build system every week with in the GSoC project period? That means roughly 14 new languages/build systems at the completion of GSoC 2013, right? (Considering the time frame of GSoC)

> Apache Rat helps projects audit and comprehend the licenses qualities of the software they ship.
> Today, Apache Rat is coded in Java and integrates with Apache Maven and Apache Ant (as well as the command line). Ports to other other languages and build systems would help increase adoption.
> This would be an ideal project for a student interested in using a variety of languages (for example Ruby, Python, JavaScript and CoffeeScript) perhaps porting to a new language or build system each week.The exact scope of schedule would be negotiable.
