   • I have several small personal works published on google code:
     • http://code.google.com/p/y86/
     • http://code.google.com/p/pycomposer/
     • http://code.google.com/p/eduadminsys/
   • Although I have been working for several software companies, I have not yet participated in any formal open-source project. It is usually not easy to start contribute to open-source communities without help from existing members. And the Summer Coding program is just a wonderful opportunity for the students to get started with it.
