[net] GSoC - Add SSH/SCP Support to Commons-Net

[Vlad Dumitrescu <vl...@dumitrescu.ro>]

Hello,

My name is Vlad Dumitrescu and I am a second year undergraduate student at 
"Politehnica" University of Bucharest - Faculty of Automatic Control and 
Computer Science in Bucharest, Romania. I would like to contribute to 
Commons-Net as part of Google Summer of Code program.

I have experience with open source development (last year I contributed to a 
project of a local open source organization) and I am passionate about computer 
networks and protocols (I am currently following a CCNP BSCI course). If you are 
interested I can also provide some Java code samples.

Can you give me some suggestions regarding my application for this project?

Thank you.

Yours sincerely,
Vlad Dumitrescu

Hi all,

Regarding including SSH/SCP in commons-net.

Some of projects that i'm involved in, due to non-technical reasons
prohibit direct usage of any cryptogrphic libraries
(binary-dependency). Including, for example, any SSH/SCP libraries
(j2ssh, jsch, etc.).

Thus, i would appreciate adding SCH/SSH functionality as a new library
for commons, not as an addition to commons-net.

One more thing. Friend of mine from MIPT laboratory created small
commons-ssh library ( http://commons-ssh.sourceforge.net/ ) that
behaves like an thin adapter to known SSH implementation. He is okay
to move it under apache commons project and extends to support SCP.

Hey Vlad,

Welcome! A few suggestions...

o engage with the community beforehand (you did that - good!)
o some projects even require a first patch (to judge if the student is
up to the work)
o communicate in an open manner - communicate often (given the past
experience I would fail students that cannot manage to communicate at
least once a week)
o while your application is expected to give a high level outline of
project plan, also provide details that show that you know what you
are talking about

Also feel free to contact me also off the list if you need further help.

cheers
