Hello Everyone! I am a Junior Undergraduate at BIT Mesra, one of the premier institutes in the field of Engineering and Sciences in India, pursuing Computer Science & Engineering.
I am looking forward for a challenging project as a part of GSOC '11 under Debian during summers. I am interested in the idea mentioned on the GSoC page "Debian Emulated on Windows". Though, I look forward toward this project but, I would like to carry out the same by proposing "Wubi like Windows installer for Debian", which may be used to perform the similar goals. Wubi was developed for Ubuntu which is used for installing Ubuntu on Windows just like another application and can be chosen to boot from the Windows boot loader when being started up. I am looking forward towards Debian Community so that I can find someone who is willing to mentor this project. I would like to discuss more about the details of the above project so that I can contribute to the Debian as well as OSS Community. I would like to mention that I have strong foundations in algorithm intensive programming and have advanced foundations in C/C++ too(Which is definitely a pre-requisite for the project, as Wubi BackEnd is in C++). Also, I am well versed in working of Linux (various flavours) based OS. I am fully aware of the responsibilities and requirements for this position. To consolidate my knowledge in the fields of interest, I have acquired conceptual knowledge in the fields of algorithms and linux & have done few basic projects in these fields too. I would like to add that being regular user of Debian OS, I am really interested in contributing to the developement of the same. If any further information is required, I would be glad to furnish the same.
