Tasks to Tackle

People should add their plugins/core plugins that they are most interested in porting. We also need to define teams (pairs or tuples) of people to work together (Extreme style) on these projects. Ideally, each team will have a maven/spring/osgi/3.0 guru.

• Discuss Integrated Search Bundle - QuickFind, Filters and ESP (Maital).

• Metanodes port (Scooter)
• 3.0 Plugin Manager (Sarah?)
• Editor (Allan)
