Hello. As told via gnu's gsoc mailing list, I'm posting my gsoc related query in this one. I am a CS undergrad studying in the final year, and would like to work on Wget2 as part of gsoc. Would want to get in touch with possible mentors and understand the codebase a bit. With that said, I thought I would describe my current state.
 I am decent at writing C code, but do not have much experience with networking. I do understand the basics though, have read the introductory book by Andrew Tanenbaum. I know about the bsd sockets api, and the basic idea of level and edge-triggered polling, etc, (but of course, have to brush up on these, and not sure how this would relate to a client application like Wget2, just throwing it out there :). Also, right now, I don't know the autotools build system well. and I do not know the innards of HTTP. As a 'proof of competency' I am linking to some code I maintain in my bitbucket repo [1]https://bitbucket.org/snyp/scaffold  Thanks.  -- Sincerely, Soumik Rakshit   References Visible links 1. https://bitbucket.org/snyp/scaffold Hidden links: 2. https://bitbucket.org/snyp/scaffold
