Hello Pali,

Hello! How are you feeling this year on GSoC?


Amazing! More than GSoC, KDE is always fun to contribute in :D Though I
feel that I am a bit slow currently with my post-grad starting in few days
and all. But I l be strict on my timeline, so not a reason for worry.

How is coding going? Do
> you need some help with anything?


I have begun with coding and currently writing the class to get Communi
with Kopete. Also, Michel suggested me to work on basic code architecture
so that any kind of IRC code can be fit in if Communi does not works best
for Kopete in the future. A basic wire-frame. So, I l be beginning with
that. Currently, you can see the patches here:
 http://quickgit.kde.org/?p=clones%2Fkopete%2Fakshayratan%2Fakshayratan-irc.git
<http://quickgit.kde.org/?p=clones%2Fkopete%2Fakshayratan%2Fakshayratan-irc.git>

I l email you whenever I need some help with Kopete codebase. I am in touch
with Michel and he has been great in giving me directions whenever I am in
stuck.

I would like to see from you updated

I am writing the updated timeline with the email shared with the community.
:)  Further, I l be blogging as and when I complete a subtask along with
updating the status on KDE wiki shared earlier by Lydia!


Thanks!
