Why SMC?
Swathanthra Malayalam Computing supports development of Indian languages and rendering of Indian texts. This is the most beatiful thing about this organization, using technology to keep our culture alive. The work that SMC is doing is indeed great and I would love to be a part of such an organization and use my programming skills to contribute towards SMC projects.
Open Source Contributions:
1) GNOME-Music:
Create private method for creating model: Define ‘model’ as a private function in class AlbumWidget and create it again when needed instead of redefining it. (git.gnome patch: [1])
Cache vadjusment in AllArtistsAlbums: Cache vadjusment in AllArtistsAlbums similar to Github Issue #114. (git.gnome patch at [2])
Cache vadjusment in ViewContainer: Cache vadjusment in ViewContainer to save execution time and reduce hits on it. (git.gnome patch at [3])
Remove call to '_on_scrollbar_visible': Call the function directly instead of calling it from within another function which was called too often due to this. (git.gnome patch at [4])
Bug #706800 -: Removed the style “suggested-action” in Cancel Button according to the updated Design mock-ups (git.gnome patch at: [5]).
2) Mozilla:
Bug #891581: Fix the focus on the input box of Web console when the cursor was blurred and focused on other tab. I have also written an automated mochi-test for testing the patch (hg.mozilla patch at: [6]).
Past GSoC Participation No, this is my first GSoC Participation.
Commitments during Project period No other commitments from May 19 till last week of July. I can devote 8 - 10 hours everyday on the project. Beginning from the last week of July I would be able to work during the evening time till night for around 5-6 hours on account of academic arrangements in the day time.
Post GSoC plans I will keep on contributing to SMC projects and improve and maintain the modules that I have implemented and keep improving it and fixing bugs in them.
Why Me? I am a second year Bachelor of Technology, Computer Science and Engineering student from Amrita Vishwa Vidyapeetham (Amritapuri campus), Kerala, India. I have been using GNU/Linux since 2 years and have been contributing to open source projects past 1 year, namely GNOME-Music and Mozilla.
