GSoC Mentor

[Muhammad abdul Rehman]

Hello everyone,

I am a Masters student and want to do the GSoC with this organization this
summer. I have gone through the list and found some projects domain
interesting but I couldn't research in the depth of the project due to
resource and time constraint at the moment.

I have some professional background in working with embedded software
development (mostly C programming), networking stacks and an RTOS porting.
Did some work in Linux development as well. I will be thankful if someone
can guide me chose the best suitable project that is beneficial for myself
and the organization at the same time. Currently, I have a look at
following projects:

Bluetooth Stack
Integrating SMB into ReactOS
Kernel mode test suite
WebKit-based MSHTML implementation
Support for the GPT Partitioning Scheme
Taskbar Shell extensions

If someone is interested in mentoring anyone of the above project, I will
be happy to talk more on that and submit a timely proposal.

Thanks a lot and best regards,

Hey,

from your list I'd be the likely mentor for at least the KMTest
project. Other projects might be supported by Pierre, Giannis or others.

To help pick your project I'd suggest you let us know more about your
interests and skills, as these are probably the most important factor.
A real-time discussion on IRC might be most fruitful for this purpose,
so feel free to join us in #reactos-dev. If that's not an option, we
could alternatively discuss here or in private e-mail.
Various devs may also have opinions on the sizes of the different
projects as well as their importance to ReactOS**, so feel free to ask
us about these privately.

If you haven't done so yet: a good start for any newcomer is to
download, build, and run ReactOS, and to create an account for Jira and
browse through the tickets a little.

Thanks and welcome,
Thomas


** Although the latter should only matter if you're undecided since the
    quality of the proposal should determine acceptance
