Hello Mentors
I am a software engineer from New Delhi, India. I’ll be going for PhD at UCSC starting Fall 2014. Therefore I’m eligible for GSoC 2014 and fortunately have the best available time to participate. I have been working on research projects since around 3 years now and I have been the primary author for the associated research publications as well. My research has been primarily in the field of ICT4D and I design the entire technical layout of those systems. Therefore, I have a lot of development experience along with system architecture design. Professionally, I have worked as a Database Administrator for the past 1.5 year. My job completes this month and I'll be completely available for GSoC this summer. Working in ICT4D, I’ve particularly enjoyed the application of ICT systems in almost any field. I got to know about Arches project through the organization list this year only. I really liked the work in this project and was glad to know something like this exists. Regarding my GSoC application, given my interests, knowledge and experience, project titled “Application Logging” seems very good. As mentioned on the site, at present there is very little logging in Arches. I think I can improve it a lot over this summer. I am most comfortable with Python for programming and I have good Django development experience. Rest everything I can learn before project start. I’ll be applying for this project at GSoC 2014. There are few things I would want to discuss before preparing my final proposal. 1. As per the mentors, will Application logging project alone suffice for the expected size from a GSoC project? If not, then I’ll try to link two related projects. 2. Am I expected to submit a structured Use-case in some specific format for the proposal or I can provide a self-structured detailed proposal? 3. Do I have to provide some initial code describing a small module of my expected implementation or explained procedures will do? It’d be really helpful if I could get some assistance on these doubts and proceed with proposal preparation.
