For the 4th time, the [http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Bolsena_Code_Sprint_2011 Bolsena OSGeo Hacking Event] is going to be held. This page lists some ideas that can be discussed within the GeoNetwork faction.

Please add any idea you have here !

== Community ==

=== Committee ===

 * Update AB ?
 * Propose PSC update ?
 * See & update:
  * http://trac.osgeo.org/geonetwork/wiki/PSC
  * List of motions in the proposal page

=== Community tools ===

 * Community tools (sourceforge.net, ML, ...) should be accessible/manageable by at least 2 persons from the community (check that)

== Documentation ==

 * Update [http://www.google.fr/images?q=geonetwork+logo&hl=en&prmd=ivns&source=lnms&tbs=isch:1&ei=sD6MTd2sCoS3hAf7l_yfCw&sa=X&oi=mode_link&ct=mode&cd=2&ved=0CAwQ_AUoAQ&biw=1440&bih=791 GeoNetwork logo] ?
   There is some discussion that !GeoNetwork does not really have a logo; a strong, graphical image that could act as a powerful symbol for GeoNetwork. The current graphics as on the default banner can hardly be considered a 'logo'; no need at all to have the project's name in the logo.
 * Name change : isn't it better to call GeoNetwork "!GeoNetwork", rather than "!GeoNetwork open source" ? The "open source" suffix adds nothing meaningful and is rather non-standard for a name, as it's not capitalized. If size does matter, it's not in projects' names !
 * Publish French documentation on the website

== GeoNetwork ==

 * On going projects ?

=== Discussion on architecture updates ===

==== Components ====
 * GAAP
 * Search
  * Search module: SOLR
  * CSW Search module ?
 * GeoNetwork legacy = admin & editor ?
 * What's metro ? 
  * What type of communication between components ? [http://activemq.apache.org/ JMS]
  * ESB, Routine engine ([http://camel.apache.org/ Camel])

==== Agreement on new or existing dependencies ====
 * Security layer require : 
  * Axis (or Metro, [http://cxf.apache.org/ CXF] ?) [http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/webservices/library/j-jws14/index.html?ca=drs- comparison]
  * JAXB or JIBX (see section on XML binding [http://trac.osgeo.org/geonetwork/wiki/codesprint/201103 here])
  * Spring security
 * Javascript : heikki thinks that jQuery is in many ways superior to Ext.js, particularly in its programming model and the plethora of readily-available plugins for jQuery. Yet we need Ext because of !GeoExt. Can we not isolate use of Ext to the mapviewer for as long as there is no jQuery equivalent to !GeoExt, and use jQuery everywhere else ?

=== New features & fixes ===

 * Security layer & GAAP
 * JS Widgets :
  * file upload : where we have file upload functions, it would be nice if we provide a drag & drop function instead of the old, old, filechooser -- something like Gmail has it. Of course with perfect degrading for users of certain browsers. A very good one is [http://aquantum-demo.appspot.com/file-upload jQuery File Upload]
 * 
 * ...

=== R&D ===

 * Ontologies & thesaurus
  * Custom Lucene Analyzer
  * Thesaurus browser widget: like [http://arborjs.org/ ArborJS] ?
 * CSW 3.0
