I,m 3rd year undergraduate student in university of Moratuwa Sri Lanka, in the past I have contributed in very little. I have developed some extentions to Mozilla Firefox and currently I'm doing some work in Vitger CRM.
Now I'm in my internship period and I thought that this is the ideal time to move on to open source development and use my free time to contribute for open source development.so I looked at Fedora and I thought this is Ideal for me. If I got an opertunity I think I can do it in my very best.
About project
Name of the project: Gnome - Nautilus Search dialog
I got this project idea from Summer Coding 2010 ideas, I could get some idea from these links. though it's late when I got to know about summer coding I got some god Idea from these. https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Summer_Coding_2010_ideas_-_Gnome_-_Nautilus_search https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=612725#c6
- Describe your project in 10-20 sentences. What are you making? Who are you making it for, and why do they need it? What technologies (programming languages, etc.) will you be using?A step by step process of joining the Fedora Project.we will be using css,php,html
- What is the timeline for development of your project? The Fedora Summer Coding work period is 11 weeks long, May 24 - August 9; tell us what you will be working on each week. (As the summer goes on, you and your mentor will adjust your schedule, but it's good to have a plan at the beginning so you have an idea of where you're headed.) Note that you should probably plan to have something "working and 90% done" by the midterm evaluation (July 5-12); the last steps always take longer than you think, and we will consider canceling projects that are not mostly working by then.
- If your project development progresses differently so there is not 90% functionality by the mid-term, you must be in regular contact with your mentor about this. Your mentor must not be surprised about the state of your project when the mid-term comes.
- If you are not progressed this far in mid-term, you must have a plan with your mentor to fix the situation.
- Convince us, in 5-15 sentences, that you will be able to successfully complete your project in the timeline you have described. This is usually where people describe their past experiences, credentials, prior projects, schoolwork, and that sort of thing, but be creative. Link to prior work or other resources as relevant.
I have created a few sites www.alphatoomega.99k.org, www.vineethkartha.0fees.net
You and the community
- If your project is successfully completed, what will its impact be on the Fedora community? Give 3 answers, each 1-3 paragraphs in length. The first one should be yours. The other two should be answers from members of the Fedora community, at least one of whom should be a Fedora Summer Coding mentor. Provide email contact information for non-Summer Coding mentors.
- What will you do if you get stuck on your project and your mentor isn't around?
- In addition to the required blogging minimum of twice per week, how do you propose to keep the community informed of your progress and any problems or questions you might have over the course of the project?
Miscellaneous
- We want to make sure that you are prepared before the project starts
- Can you set up an appropriate development environment?
- Have you met your proposed mentor and members of the associated community?
- What is your t-shirt size?
- Describe a great learning experience you had as a child.
- Is there anything else we should have asked you or anything else that we should know that might make us like you or your project more?
