Hello devs, I read the last year's GSOC page and proposal and now I guess I have s brief idea about the project. And I am very interested in contributing to it. I today mailed massimo and waiting for his reply.
But I cannot find the reports of the last year's project. So I have some doubts regarding what should be done next. If anyone of you can give me a small task to test my skills it will be really good. Also I would like to talk about the project proposal to be submitted next week.
