Hi all,<br>
<br>
You may remember me as one of the students who applied for the i386<br>
ABI Implementation project under GSOC.<br>
<br>
Unfortunately, due to a variety of reasons (some of which have already<br>
been pointed out), I could not get selected.<br>
<br>
Some of the major points:<br>
<br>
1. I did not interact significantly on the mailing list (besides<br>
cheekily asking for comments on my proposal).<br>
2. I had not contributed in any way to DFBSD prior to the proposal stage.<br>
(Feel free to add more in succession)<br>
<br>
Irrespective of the results, I still intend to continue with the<br>
project. My primary motivation for taking it up was to contribute to<br>
something practical & real-life, as opposed to just working on<br>
assignments in college courses (although, I must admit that the moolah<br>
& the t-shirt were also enticing :) ) As I can still gain a summer's<br>
worth of experience & hopefully come out with a working solution for<br>
DFBSD, it looks like a win-win situation, for both, the DragonFly<br>
community & me.<br>
<br>
Since I'm no longer bound by the GSOC timeline, I will simply offset<br>
the work to begin on 15th of June, after dealing with my GRE exam.<br>
Everything else regarding the schedule shall remain unchanged.<br>
<br>
Now to matters of more import:<br>
<br>
I know that the DragonFly community is stretched as it is due to GSOC<br>
work, so I wanted to ask whether I can request for a mentor of sorts<br>
during this period. Although I am sure I can count on the IRC & the<br>
mailing list for answers, it would be reassuring to know that someone<br>
is equally interested in getting this project done, besides me.<br>
<br>
This would also be the ideal time to let me know if someone has<br>
already started work on this idea, or for whatever reason, doesn't<br>
want me to work on this idea.<br>
<br>
Regards,<br>
