Summary

Hello!

This is a short summary of my work during Google Summer of Code 2006.
The main idea of this post is to be a single repository for all the links I need to provide Google folks to make my work known.

For the other people reading this blog entry, my SoC 2006 proposal is described here.

Well the first thing to point is my blog, which, by the way, is the one you are reading right now. I tried to post on my blog a brief of every step I took to accomplish my work. However on the last weeks of the program I hadn't enough time to feed it with detailed information.

Those are the people who helped me with my work:
Lukas Smith
Pierre-Alain Joye

A big thank for you and everyone from #PEAR at EFnet.

A few days after I started working on MDB2_Schema I had a PEAR account opened for me.

The first step was the definition of the new XML syntax for MDB2.

So I had to update the DTD (document type definition) and then created a XSD (XML Schema Definition) as an alternative XML descriptor.

The last step was the code itself, that is available on CVS.

This is some comments regarding my work made by my mentor, Lukas, during the program: 1 2 3.

Hopefully this is not the end. After I was introduced to Open Source Software a promising friendship has begun. Let's keep it up and running :) There is so much to do yet... and there will always be.

Well, now it's time to thanks Leslie Hawthorn and Chris DiBona for they wonderful work at Google Summer of Code 2006. I guess it wasn't easy, but you did it very well!
