Thanks, those are really encouraging words. Truth to be told, I'm somewhat nervous because I would have to study at the same time I'm on the GSoC, but I'm going to do my best effort for doing both pretty well. > The projects I thought on porting >> bazaar(since I already have some experiencie), writing an init system, >> and maybe doing shutdown and intel HD audio driver.
