Hi everyone :) Quoting Thomas Schwinge (2013-06-01 11:00:40) > First, congratulations again for getting your applications accepted! In > no particular order: 陆岳 (Yue Lu) »Improve the GDB Port for GNU Hurd«, > <http://www.google-melange.com/gsoc/proposal/review/google/gsoc2013/hacklu/1>;
Hi Yue Lu, as someone who was frustrated by gdb on the Hurd in the past, your project is highly appreciated. May I ask how you like to be addressed? I'm fuzzy about what your first and what you second name is... > Fotis Koutoulakis »Porting the GCC go language frontend on the GNU/HURD > kernel«, > <http://www.google-melange.com/gsoc/proposal/review/google/gsoc2013/nlightnfotis/1>; Hi Fotis, this is very nice. I grew quite fond of Go and will use it for my project as well. I have written a model checker in Go and look forward to use it on Hurd. If it would be possible to write translators in Go this would enable one to write say a translator that enforces a security policy and have that policy code verified. FWIW the code is at https://bitbucket.org/teythoon/vgo > Copyright assignment. [...] Will do that. > Weekly reports. Check. > Next steps. It's now the community bonding period, in which you're to > continue interacting with the projects' community, and slowly begin > working towards your GSoC projects (subject to first finishing your > university work, of course). Anything Debian-specific stuff I can do to bond more strongly with Debian? > For example, now it's high time to make > sure that you have the development environment/infrastructure for working > on your GSoC project: a suitably powered machine, etc. I took the opportunity to upgrade my main machine. SSD arrived today and since I'm going to work a lot with Qemu, this machine could use the two extra gigs of ram that are laying around here but that I cannot install in the current mainboad b/c it's so tiny. Replacement mainboard is due to arrive here this week. > Justus, anything you need? Yes. Maybe. I read about the UDD and [0] suggests that one could access from wagner (alioth). I thought about querying it for relevant bug reports. Is that worth doing? If so, how do I get an account on this machine? Viele Gruesse, Justus
