[ros-dev] Greetings from GSoC student!

[mvardan]

Hello ReactOS community!

My name is Vardan.

First of all I want to say thank you to all the members of this community
who helped me to figure out status of works and make a proposal for GSoC.
Also I want to express my gratitude to those who makes decision to accept
my proposal. It is very responsible for me to be accepted for this project.
You can be sure that I'll do my best to be able to meet your expectations.

For all other members of ReactOS community, I want to introduce myself. I
am 1st year master student from Armenia. I have about 2 years of Linux
Driver development experience. My GSoC project title is "Improve ReactOS
USB stack" and I will be very grateful for any help from anyone of you. I
can easily communicate on Russian and English.

During this month after submission and before acceptance I have done some
investigation of ReactOS and it's built environment. Related to RosBE I
want to express separate thanks to them who created such environment where
newbies like me are able to easily build and test ReactOS and it's drivers
(even with MSVS!). ReactOS wiki page is also very helpful!

I have started Investigation of NT driver concepts with "Microsoft Windows
Internals" book and some online articles. Any recommendations related
sources of information are strongly appreciated by me.

I hope that this GSoC project will be a good starting point for me, to join
to "very small and exclusive ranks of people who know how to do NT systems
development" :)

Best regards,
Vardan.
