Why do you want to work with the Swathanthra Malayalam Computing?

I have been following the works of Swathanthra Malayalam Computing for some time now.I always wanted to contribute something to the community for a long time now.I was afraid to do so because of lack of guidance and the lack of knowledge on how to proceed.This project now has given me the platform to make contact with the open source community of Swathanthra Malayalam Computing and to contribute useful work to it.I really want to learn about the various technologies used by this community and in the process give something useful back to our community.

Do you have any past involvement with the Swathanthra Malayalam Computing or another open source project as a contributor?

I don't have any past experience with Swathanthra Malayalam Computing community or any other source project as a contributor. Even though i have followed the workings of various open source projects like that of Mozilla Firefox ,I felt intimidated about contributing something because of my inexperience.I hope to gain experience as a contributor by workingon this project.

Did you participate with the past GSoC programs, if so which years, which organizations?

I havent participated in any past GSoC programs.

Do you have other obligations between May and August ?

In May our University Exams are scheduled from 17th to 19th.During this time as the coding part of the project will not have been started it will not hinder my work on the project.After May normal classes will resume only from July leaving me with plenty of time to work on the project.

Will you continue contributing/ supporting the Swathanthra Malayalam Computing after the GSoC 2013 program, if yes, which area(s), you are interested in?

Yes,I will continue to support and contribute to the Swathanthra Malayalam Computing community even after the GSoC 2013 program because it has always been my dream to get involved with an active community as this.Also Malayalam as such holds a special interest in my heart being my mother tongue and it gives me great pride in contributing something in my capacity to my language.

Why should we choose you over other applicants?

The reason to choose me over the other applicants is my immense passion and love towards learning new things and being able to apply it to practical problems.I am really hardworking and have a very good grasping ability.Even though I lack experience,I will be able to make it up through my dedication and hard work.I am sure this project would be a great learning curve for me and that I will be able to continue supporting this community for a long time.
