Hi Ashvini! The coding projects that we have already identified for this round of OPW are here: https://wiki.debian.org/SummerOfCode2013/Projects (We use the same page for GSoC and OPW coding projects since they follow the same criteria.) I see that there is one project that sounds like it's probably a good fit (requires C/C++ knowledge): https://wiki.debian.org/SummerOfCode2013/Projects#MIPS_N32.2FN64_ABI_port Please don't hesitate to follow up if you have any questions. -Brian P.S. - I am one of the coordinators for OPW this year. > Cheers > Laura Arjona > https://wiki.debian.org/LauraArjona > >> Thankyou, >> >> Ashvini Varatharaj >> > > > -- > To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-women-requ...@lists.debian.org > with a subject of "unsubscribe".
