Hi Nitin,

We are in the process of changing Kepler over to be more modular and 
hence easier to extend.  I just created a new target in the build to 
create a shell module which can be used to extend kepler.  You can issue 
the command 'ant newModule -Dmodule=<moduleName>' and the build will 
create a new directory structure with the needed build and properties 
files for your module.

In the modules directory, you will see the 'core' module.  This module 
includes all of the basic kepler functionality without any of the gui or 
other utility classes.  If you wish to extend Kepler from the basics, 
this is where to start.

There are several other projects going on to create web interfaces for 
Kepler.  You might want to send out an email to the list asking for 
assistance on this.  You might save yourself a lot of time if you could 
use or extend someone else's web system.
