Greetings, My name is Ivan Alexandru, I am a second year undergraduate at Politehnica University of Bucharest, and I am very much interested in working on LibreOffice during this year's Summer of Code. I have a good understanding of C/C++ and have used them in the two years at the university but never to work on such a large project. In addition, I am familiar with Java, and also have basic to medium understanding of Python and functional languages like Scheme and Haskell.
I have already cloned the repo and built LO under linux. Moreover, I have worked on this easyhack https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=60700 and submitted a patch. This, being a first for me, I mistakenly submitted it to the wrong branch https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/#/c/3400/ but realized my error and resubmitted to master https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/#/c/3401/ . As you can probably see, it ended up not being much to do, although the bug is almost fixed, at least for the examples at hand. I would like to know if this counts towards being eligible, as mentioned in the application guide, or should I begin working on another easyhack to be sure? Also, I have taken a look through the ideas page. Two of them have captured my interest, namely the one regarding Table Styles in Writer and the one concerning ODF Formulas. I have a couple of questions about these: Which of these do you consider more important? (and if neither are on the priority list, please point me to one that is) Are there any other resources I should be aware of in order to get accustomed with the project, aside from the given code pointers? Thank you for your time, Alex Ivan -- View this message in context: http://nabble.documentfoundation.org/GSOC-2013-Candidate-tp4051245.html Sent from the Dev mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ LibreOffice mailing list LibreOffice@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice
