Brian, I'm evaluating the possibility of using Java-overlay for this project, so any pointers regarding that clearly helps since I'm new to the environment. These days I'm trying to figure out and list the requirements for the project. The idea page only contain a brief description. I'd very much appreciate if anyone can give some further information regarding this idea. I'm little depressed with lesser support because Google Summer of Code is time-constrained which means I have to do a good initial research and submit a proposal in a 1 1/2 weeks time. I guess it's probably because of weekends?
