Hi all,
while the techbase page needs updating, you may have heard on the internet
that extensions support is planned for rekonq 3.0. This means that work
about will start in a month or so, after last 2.x stable release.
I started months ago working on Nikhilm code (the one stopped in 2010) and
I'll be able to publish a first development branch as soon as I can
properly clean up and rebase it. As said, in a month or so.
I'll be happy having help on that branch, "extending" extensions support or
implementing "test extensions" to. But due to work and real life I really
cannot mentor any GSOC this year, sorry.

Regards,
