Very good. Many such projects have been launched or fully executed by engineering students. Another one that comes to mind is Prabhu Ramachandran's Mayavi. I am sure there must be more. Why are our (Kerala's) students behind in this? Perhaps our developers should spend some more time identifying projects for students and guiding them. I was once told by engineering college teachers that both students and teachers lack good Free Software project ideas. Perhaps we could start a wiki with such project ideas? What do you all think?

Best,
Sasi

Wikipedia, as you know, is a widely popular website visited by millions
every day. I was thinking that many people would love to have an app for
it on their Android phones. I would certainly like to have one. Was
wondering whether it could not be done as a project by one of the
thousands of B.Tech students in our colleges.


The official wikimedia app is actually written by a college student.
Porting a tamil keyboard to android or something for wikimedia is his major
project. He is a friend :)
