Why do you want to work with the Fedora Project?

I've been a Fedora user for the past two years and believe that Fedora's approach to open source is superior to many other communities, as evident by it's longevity and strong user and contributor base. I am aiming to join this community as Fedora is "the place" to contribute to the open source community.

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

First time developing open source.

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

No, I had not.

Will you continue contributing/ supporting the Fedora project after the GSoC 2012 program?

If given the opportunity, I'd be very interested in continuing my work on Fedora at infrastructure or Cloud programming.

Why should we choose you over the other applicants?

I'm a dedicated student, very curious and willing of learn more and more, despite of other people, I love to learn and work; it makes me happy to know how to do more things; but all of this is so I can innovate more more, I think, that the only proposal of learnig is only to make new things, and I'm the kind the person that likes to think out of the box. So by making this project I'm sure to gain experience and be more active at the open source world.
