My preferred application programming languages are C, C++ and Java, and my preferred Web scripting languages are JavaScript, ActionScript and php. In terms of web development projects iv created form start to finish(as I have done a lot of sections and pieces of coding for people), I have created 2 websites completely in flash with actionscript, and 4 other websites made the normal way(html, CSS) but with a server backbone mainly using php and JavaScript.<br>Im a very fast learner and if need be I will spend many hours a day learning anything im behind on.

When I first got interested in this prodject I hadnt used Ruby on Rails before, since then I have completed a small test project of a bookshop with sqlite as the book database. :)

Me and the Community

If your project is successfully completed, what will its impact be on the Fedora community?

"This project will allow fast and simple interaction between students and mentors. The FSoC project will effect almost every area of Fedora Summer Coding from the way projects are managed to the way students submit their proposals." - Me

"One of the targets of the FSoC project is to automate the task of mentoring students in Summer Projects like these. FSoC, once functional aims to replace the Fedora Summer coding Infrastructure." - Shreyank Gupta


What will you do if you get stuck on your project and your mentor isn't around? It is unlikely that I would get stuck at the same time as my mentor not be around, however, should this be the case, I am quite resourceful and know many people that would be more than happy to help me.

In addition to the required blogging minimum of twice per week, how do you propose to keep the community informed of your progress and any problems or questions you might have over the course of the project? Twitter and more Blogging
