Hi,
Firstly I, Gaurav would like to introduce myself to the developers of this commmunity. I am a sophomore from Birla Institute of Science and Technology Pilani, India currently pursuing Bachelors in Computer Science and Engineering.
My skills include Programming languages: GNU C/C++, Python, Java,PHP/MySQL Version control systems and Git/Github. I am also aware with many of the web development application tools and content management systems. I am an ambitous person willing to learn other technologies when need in future.
I choose this organisation for the contribution as the work the community does looks very appealing and interesting to me and useful for the whole community. The skills used by the organisation for the development of open source software matches with my skills to much extent.
I had installed the required necessary tools and setup the environment in my system needed for the contribution to open source software. I had got myself aware of the source to some extent. I had also read the contribution, development tutorial on the community webpage.
I would like to seek the mentors help in the selection of the project for which the idea has been proposed for the Gsoc and someone is willing to mentor the project idea.
I will highly appreciate with any kind of help, guidance from the mentors to help me move forward to contribute to the software starting off with some easy tasks and then moving levels higher so as to make a strong proposal for the upcoming Google Summer of Code 2014.
