Improve and extend the Javascript for Semantic MediaWiki and some of its spinoff extensions, most notably Semantic Forms. This would include transferring over much of the Javascript to use the jQuery library, which is now becoming a MediaWiki standard.

About me
My name is Sanyam. I am final year Student of Computer Science department, IIT Mumbai, India. I am interested in applying for google summer of code 2010. I very much like the idea of open-source and I am passionate to be a part of one. I want to do this awesome project because It will give me an opportunity to work with a large open-source community,So that I can learn more about it.

I am a passionate programmer. I have done programming in various languages including C++,Java, PHP, Javascript, etc. I liked the idea that was proposed by Yaron Koren to improve the Javascript of semantic MediaWiki extensions. I believe that semantic MediaWiki is gaining popularity as the concept of semantic Web is growing, In that believe it is important to improve semantic Wiki to match user expectations. I think this project will be a good stepping stone in that direction.
