Hello, I am candidating for the project "Modularize Automake to improve the test-suite performance"
As you may have noticed, this is my second proposal for the GSoC to the Automake project. You may have also noticed that 2 other persons are interested in this other project. This is why I have decided, after speaking with Mathieu Lirzin, that it would be a wise idea to candidate to other projects or project ideas. The goal of the summer of code is not to have a race with other candidates. As Mathieu told me, there may be multiple students working for Automake under his mentorship. You will find my proposal for this subject here : matthias.paulmier.emi.u-bordeaux.fr/proposal_am_2.pdf. Please give me feedbacks on this proposal. I am conscious it is bit lackey as I have thought more about the previous one (for example I don't know what to add to the deliverables). I have been advised to look at other projects but as I said, I didn't find much interest in other projects either because of technical or philosophical aspects. I will however take a second look at other projects from GNU as there has been new idea submissions since I candidated here and if I find interesting projects I will likely make a proposal tonight (CET) or tomorrow and keep you informed. Thanks. -- Matthias Paulmier
