Why do you want to work with the Fedora Project?

I'm a Fedora user since almost 2 years, love the way of your opensource mentality; not like other "opensource" organizations ¬¬; but anyway, I want to contribute to the world, and Fedora is a "place" where I rely to accomplish this goal.

=== 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? ===

Of course!!!, hopefully work there or contribute, continue in Cloud programming, or networking.

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 peopple, although it sounds nerd, 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.

Proposal Description
