Contributing to Wink

[Luke Thompson <lt...@infomedia.com.au>]

Hi,

We've been using Wink for a month or so, and are finding it a great framework. We found 2 bugs in the software:

1) Multiple cookie values not being picked up
2) Query parameters not being represented in the Admin view XML

We've looked at the code and have patches for both to contribute. Could I become a contributor and submit the patches?

Also, we added an XSLT to our project which converts the Admin view XML into a jQuery based HTML UI for debugging our services (a couple of screen shots attached). It's still a work in progress but would you be interested in working together on integrating that into the Wink framework? We found it an invaluable tool for debugging.

Hi Luke,

We definitely welcome patches for the bugs you found!  Thanks for being willing 
to contribute that, and your prototype for the HTML UI.  I saw the JIRA for item 
#2, is there also a JIRA for item #1?  Just make sure that you check the box 
indicating that you're granting ASF license to the patches so we can commit 
them.

The listserv stripped the attachments so I'm not able to see the screenshots.  
You mentioned that it's a tool for debugging.  Is the tool providing an HTML 
view of the admin info?  Or is it interactive with the services?  Either way, 
sounds interesting.  I'd like to hear more about it.

-Nick
