Hello everyone,<br><br>First of all, I would like to say I am very excited about working on this project. I would also like to thank both Google and my mentors for allowing me this opportunity. <br><br>I have taken a look at TortoiseBzr and it would be the perfect starting point for my project. I am willing to pick up from here and implement the ideas on the TODO list if that is okay with Henry. Along with the ideas from the TODO list, I would also like to implement an interface that would allow plugin writers to add their own commands to the context menu. I am free and open to all other suggestions of what everyone would like to see implemented.
<br><br>Thanks once again,<br>Alexander

Congratulations to all the students!<br><br>As Szilveszter mentioned in an earlier email, I've also been working on<br>Windows shell integration. Current status is shell icon overlay<br>extensions work, and the context menu has working commit, diff, and
<br>checkout (branch) menu options using bzr-gtk.<br><br>If Alexander would like, I can back off on this development?<br><br>Some screenshots are at <<a href="http://www.hl.id.au/Projects/tortoisebzr/" target="_blank" onclick="return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)">

<br>><br>> The code phase of the project is scheduled to start in late April, I<br>> suppose after the exam period for American universities. But we don't<br>> have to wait until then, and we can at least start talking about these
<br>> things. It was very cool to see (as far as I am aware) some code<br>> already from Klaus and Alexander, and Bogdano on irc.<br>><br>> I would like to invite our students to the upcoming sprint in London,
<br>> from the 14th to 18th of May. I hope this doesn't clash with your<br>> exams and that you will be able to come and meet more of the people<br>> you'll be working with. Please mail me directly to let me know.
