Hi all,=0A=0AI have submitted a support request on SourceForge to take over= this project. The process will take 2-3 weeks as per the Sourceforge proce= ss guidelines. Assuming that I get control of the project at the end of 3 w= eeks, here is what I will be doing:=0A=0A1. Remove extra developers from th= e mailing list. Till now only two other developers have expressed interest.= =0A2. Quickget1 and Quickget2 are two modules on this project. Both are equ= ally flaky, but Quickget1 has a better UI. Let's pursue with Quickget1=0A3.= The UI needs immediate attention. I have already started putting effort in= to revamping the UI. Apart from the eye candy, the code around the UI needs= to be heavily refactored.=0A4. We will be moving to Netbeans 5.5 as the de= velopment environment. This will be done keeping the interests of rapid UI = development in mind.=0A5. We will target JDK6 for development. This project= needs some fast movement/attention. JDK6 will give us that=0A6. Last but n= ot the least, we will gun for an initial release in april 2007 (remember it= will be January before i get control of the project).=0A=0ATill we get hol= d of the project, here is what I want interested developers to do:=0A1. Sen= d me a mail detailing what work is being planned by you into your areas of = interest in quickget. Let's start work right away. And lets start communica= ting right away.=0A2. Start commiting code to the quickget1 module. We need= not wait till january for this.=0A=0AThanks and Regards,=0ARohan=0A=0A=0A= =0A=0A=0A__________________________________________________=0ADo You Yahoo!= ?=0ATired of spam? Yahoo!
