Nice to hear from you and I hope it will prove a nice experience. Students of previous years certainly have gone forward to fame and fortune - or at least interesting careers in open source and databases. > I really appreciate if someone could provide further details, resources I > have to refer to There isn't much to refer to yet. We have just submitted our application for 2012. Then about 2 weeks from now we know if we are accepted. At that point we will publish a wiki page with project ideas, and you can of course propose ideas too. The schedule of how all this unfolds is here: http://www.google-melange.com/gsoc/events/google/gsoc2012 Usually Drizzle gets quite many applications. We highly recommend that you engage with the project in the form of some small bug fix or other code commit already before applying. This will enhance your chances of getting selected. It also means that the mentors will know who you are and can review the code you have already submitted. See http://wiki.drizzle.org/GSOC_2011#Contacting_the_Mentors (until end of page) To facilitate this (and anyone that wants to start hacking on Drizzle, really) we maintain a list of bugs tagged "low-hanging-fruit" on launchpad. https://bugs.launchpad.net/drizzle/+bugs?field.tag=low-hanging-fruit henrik -- [email protected] +358-40-8211286 skype: henrik.ingo irc: hingo www.openlife.cc My LinkedIn profile: http://www.linkedin.com/profile/view?id=9522559 _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~drizzle-discuss Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~drizzle-discuss More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
