In my past projects, I have worked on Grid middleware framework at University of Reading, UK. I designed the integration mechanism between GridSphere Portal and Gridway Metaschedular. I will send the copy of that work on you email address in a separate email. > > If not, you might want to consider trying to fix some low-hanging-bugs > during the GSOC application period to showcase your skills: > https://bugs.launchpad.net/drizzle/+bugs?field.tag=low-hanging-fruit > I am more than happy to pick up the bugs and fix them. I will now setup my machine with the Drizzle and then pick up a bug to get myself familiar with the system. Thank you for this suggestion.
