Hi, I am Umang Malik, a Computer Science sophomore at IIT Kanpur, India. I would like to express my interest in participating in this year's GSoC under KDE. Having a look at the projects, I am particularly interested in "Add support for showing and adding replies to sticky notes". Being an old and active user of Okular, and having tried a variety pdf readers in the past, I believe this is a handy and important feature for Okular. I have successfully built Okular locally and also reproduced issue 387834 <https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=387834>.
I've been programming for over four years and am proficient with development, be it through coursework, internship, or projects. Some of my key projects include an autocorrect application <https://github.com/umang-malik/autocorrect> in C++ (using Visual Studio for GUI) and SAT solver <https://github.com/tanmayanand44/CS202-Assignments-Fall-2018/tree/master/Assignment2> (using DPLL algorithm). You can find my github profile here <https://github.com/umang-malik>. I would like to work on the project for replies on sticky notes and would like to formally discuss the idea with you. Also, it would be great if I can get some suggestions for bugs I could fix to get familiar with the code and contribute. Regards! Umang Malik
