About Me
My name is Nitish Kumar Dwivedi, 3rd Year CS student at Institute of Engineering and Technology, Devi Ahliya University, India. I have been actively contributing into Open Source Projects since last year. I have no prior experience in Fedora, but i have done environment setup, Built target project from source and currently going through documentations. I love challenging problems and like to brain-storm around them. I have been using various open source software for a very long time. This motivates me to contribute back to this community.
Language for communication: English(Fluent) and Hindi(Native).

Why Fedora?
Fedora is one of the fastest growing Open Source Community that i know. I was to be part of this wonderful Organization. Mentors here at Fedora are really helpful and are helping in understanding many things. Fedora projects give an opportunity to build something that have a significant impact! Additionally, FOSS enthusiast.
Why FMW
Fedora Media Writer is a cross platform application that allows to create LiveUSB. Currently, it have some missing features like Persistant Storage, being able to create LiveUSB without affecting data already present in the USB.
Motivation for this project come from my daily life usage. I always wanted these feature while using LiveUSB. So, its a great opportunity to implement these new features.
I will continue contributing to this project even after this Summer of Code and would contribute to develop additional features. //TODO
