Why do you want to work with the Swathanthra Malayalam Computing?
Swathanthra Malayalam Computing is the best platform for me to showcase my talent and prove my self. Moreover seeing my fellow batch mates I was inspired to contribute to open source project. The project Grandham is totally of my field of interest. In addition to this the mentors are very helpful and are always ready to help any time. I am looking my carrier in software field and want to become a good developer so SMC's platform is a golden opportunity.
Do you have any past involvement with the Swathanthra Malayalam Computing or another open source project as a contributor?
No.I was not familiar with SMC. I have not contributed to any open source project.
Did you participate with the past GSoC programs, if so which years, which organizations?
No. I have not participated in GSoC programs before.
Do you have other obligations between May and August ? Please note that we expect the Summer of Code to be a full time, 40 hour a week commitment
I will try to give more than 40 hour a week as I will try to do my work on weekends also. I am very dedicated towards my studies and passion as I used to study 12 hour daily during my preparation time. I will try to finish the project requirements 2-3 weeks before the dead line.
Will you continue contributing/ supporting the Swathanthra Malayalam Computing after the GSoC 2013 program, if yes, which area(s), you are interested in?
I will contribute to SMC even after GSOC'14 and if I am not selected then also I will be in touch with SMC and mentors. I will try to develop advance features in Grandham (conversion to MARC 21 file of other language file other than english) in future. Moreover I will try to extend project to other form of records other than bibliographic record.
Why should we choose you over other applicants?
I have been working on ruby on rails for last 1 year and I had done my summer internship'13 too on ruby on rails developing a web application for company www.schoolmitra.com. In that project I had worked on student database management, student report card management, bulletin board feature, alert system on mobile and email and event management system. I have also created a basic blog app using ruby on rails framework. Swanthanthra Malayalam Computing will be a great platform for me to contribute as the organisation has project 'Grandham' which belongs to my field of interest. I am familiar with most of the gems and tools which will be used in the project. Moreover the project is basically implementation of encoding and decoding algorithm and as I am good in algorithm and programming that will help me. I am very enthusiastic and passionate about the project and I will work with full dedication and determination.
