At ThoughtWorks occasionally a developer will not be assigned to a project, and is hence 'on the beach'. So far, I've been 'on the beach' all of three days. When I was on the beach, I read some of the Spring 2.0 manual and created a COBOL copybook to Java code generator. I'm always thinking of projects that would require at least a day, which I hope to work on next time I'm 'on the beach'.

  • Volunteer for Kiva.org
  • Create my 43Places J2ME App mobile check-in app.
  • Create a VoiceXML app.
  • FixStyle project - like CheckStyle, but it fixes the things CheckStyle complains about.
  • Streams library for Java. Create utility classes like 'tr', 'sed,' and 'awk' which operator on streams.
  • FreeTDS like database driver for Ruby, written in pure Ruby.
  • OpenId module for Gallery2
  • Create an ANTLR language target for D.

Completed

  • Simian replacement. Create a similarity analyser that works at a syntax level. For example, just renaming your variables doesn't make a method different.
