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

I feel that nowadays native languages are being ignored for a global language. As a result the richness, the culture and the nuances associated with it are disappearing. As malayalam is my native tongue, I want to do my part in propogating it. And I feel that working with like minded people will be enriching.

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

No.

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

No, I haven't.

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 can devote the requisite time for 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?

I will try to contribute regardless of being selected or not. I am interested in disambiguation of word meanings and mapping words across different languages.

Why should we choose you over other applicants?

Sorry, I don't believe in selling myself. The decision is yours.
