===Why do you want to work with the Fedora Project?===
     I see a large number of opportunities in the fedora project since it has a larger ecosystem of open source deliverables. The Community is very supportive and talented. I think Fedora is the correct place for me to explore the vast world of open source and leading technologies.
     I think fedora project has one of best open source communities, there I can apply my knowledge of technologies to develop high quality and maintainable open source software.

     No, I do not have any past involvement as a contributor for an open source project but I have used open source tools extensively to develop features of my past project www.acenetcampus.com .
     I take a part in GSOC 2012 with Libcloud.ReST project. https://github.com/islamgulov/libcloud.rest. Now I'm Apache Software Foundation committer and continue work on libcloud.

===Why should we choose you over other applicants?===
     I have been an open source user and enthusiast since the last four years. I head a open source community in my university and have organised various FOSS Meets and hack-a-thons. I have always wanted to contribute to major open source projects.I solved few bugs in gnome-calculator but the patches were already available for it in the latest versions. I have thorough understanding of the ruby on rails project pipeline and have worked in a major project(www.acenetcampus.com)  for one  year.
     I love open source, as for me it's not just about software, it's also about community. I willing to contribute open source and GSOC is a good opportunity to get involved in new projects. I understand what open source is and have enough technical background to get the job done.
      I have been interacting with potential mentors( Mairin Duffy , Ryan Lerch , Emily Dirsh ) for approximately  two months now and have gained utmost knowledge of what has to be done regarding the project with which i hope to be working on. I investigated the ways of implementing the specific features which the project targets such as Oauth, Magic Mockup , Sparkleshare , github api , dropbox api, box api etc., Being a designer myself, I understand the importance of the tool. Design Hub for designers, and am very interested to work on it.
    I have been interacting with potential mentor(Tim Flink) to consider which features are most important and which features would be implemented in accordance to the time left after completing all the features.
