Here is a list of project proposals and potential projects around db4o. You can use these entries to kickstart your next project:

.	Related Project/Technology	Proposed by	Description	Votes
	Android	Carl Rosenberger	Google has launched the Android Developer Challenge with a total of $10 million of prize money for the best projects. We are collecting ideas for possible projects.	-
	Microsoft Sync Framework Provider for db4o	Luciano Di Cocco	Microsoft has just released a synchronization framework. A db4o provider would allow db4o to participate in synchronization tasks with any datasource supporting ADO.NET (e.g. SQL Server). Unlike dRS this solution won't need Hinernate to sync to/from relational datasources	11 votes (Vote!)
	Nuxeo 5	Stéfane Fermigier	Nuxeo Core: looking for developers that would like to extend the core with new kinds of document storages other than the JCR, for instance a RDBMS (via Hibernate), an OODBMS (like db4o) or an XML database, add application-level replication / synchronization, etc. For more information see this blog post	1 votes (Vote!)
	Merge Module	Carl Rosenberger	An object tree external merge module for db4o. See this post for more information	10 votes (Vote!)
	EclipseLink adapter	German Viscuso	EclipseLink is the successor of TopLink, now focusing on providing a standard and universal open source persistence framework for the Eclipse project.	3 votes (Vote!)
	Pluggable low level communication for Client/Server	Kaushal Shastri	e.g. overload OpenClient or OpenServer methods of the container to user a url reference (e.g OpenClient(http://....) or OpenServer(protocol== http, port = 80). For example a SOAP wrapper might do the trick still keeping the body of the SOAP message in binary format for efficiency. Even XML-RPC may be efficient enough for the purpose.	0 votes (Vote!)
	db4o XML database	Carl Rosenberger	Turn db4o into a pure XML database by writing a reflector layer that operates against XML (see this post)	7 votes (Vote!)
	db4o Maven2 support	Chris Beams / Erik Putrycz	Provide db4o artifacts for Maven2 (see this post)	23 votes (DONE!)
