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

I heard about smc by accident . I saw the mailing list from launchapad when I was helping one project for malayalam translation. I joined in that mailing list and really surprised with dedication of smc members for malayalam language computing. I asked to one of the members about the reason behind this dedication . His answer was simple "I am a malayalee ,It is our responsibility" . As a malayalee I also have responsibility to complete the dream "എന്റെ കമ്പ്യൂട്ടറിനു് എന്റെ ഭാഷ". So I decided to contribute to smc in this summer . I will work for smc even if I am not selected for GSoc , Because It is my responsibility

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

I don't have considerable contribution to opensource projects .But I hope I can involve in open source projects in future here is my github profile tachyons

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

No

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

NO , I don't have such obligations

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 , My interested fields are

  • Machine language translation system for malayalam
  • Malayalam Speech Recognition
  • Malayalam text to speech(Improving Dhani)

Why should we choose you over other applicants?

I am a foss enthusiast and technology enthusiast. I am new to the field of digital sound processing ,But I have knowledge about digital signal processing and have solid background in major programming languages . I also planned to create a similar project as the academic project , So that I can spend more time and effort for this project
