please answer following questions

Why do you want to work with the Fedora Project?

Because I love to work with open communities and their projects. Fedora is one of the best projects in the open space. I would love to contribute to such a project and join the great people in making great stuff.

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

Yes, I am deeply involved in the Mozilla project. I have worked on a couple of their projects like Firefox, Firefox for Android, Firefox Add-on SDK, Devtools, Bedrock, Gaia etc. Also, I have fixed a few bugs in Waartaa.

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

No.

Will you continue contributing/ supporting the Fedora project after the GSoC 2014 program, if yes, which team(s), you are interested with?

Yes, I love what Waartaa is doing and I would continue contributing to it even after GSoC 2014 program. Also, I would look around to contribute in other Fedora projects too.

Why should we choose you over other applicants?

Because I am an existing contributor to Waartaa and would continue contributing to it and make it better as we take it to new levels. I am already familiar with waartaa code base, and the web technologies it uses. Also, I am well familiar with the development tools used in Waartaa and other open source projects, so there won’t be any time wasted in learning to use the tools.
