Why do you want to work with the Fedora Project?

  • I feel that Fedora offers a very stable operating system to the end user, and at the same time, a very diverse and helpful community to anyone who wishes to be a part of it.

Do you have any past involvement with the Fedora project or with any another open source project as a contributor (if possible please add some references as well)?

  • Yes, I've currently started to package softwares for Fedora Repository.

Did you participate with the past GSoC programs, if so which years, which organizations?

  • No, this year would be my first time.

Will you continue contributing/ supporting the Fedora project after the GSoC 2013 program, if yes, which team(s)/area(s), you are interested with?

  • Definitely Yes, I'll be contributnig to the GLusterFS Project and Fedora Project as a Package Maintainer.

Why should we choose you over the other applicants?

I love building new stuff and hacking my way through to solve a really messy problem. Be it any Hackathon, or a Tech Meetup in New Delhi, You’re bound to find me in almost all the events. I really love spending my time at 24 or 48 hour long Hackathons, building or coding the weekend away. So however complex the code base maybe, I’ll definitely work around to solve my problem.
