Hi José
I'm a little overcharged with work at the moment, so I'll forward your
request to [email protected] . Please subscribe to that
list so that everyone can see your mail....., and reply to it :-)
And, have a look at
http://wiki.apertium.org/wiki/Ideas_for_Google_Summer_of_Code and see if
you find something interesting. And come to the IRC channel #apertium
Yours,
Jacob

> Hello,I am really interested in joining Apertium to participate in the
> Google Summer of Code. I am a 2nd year Electronics and Computer Science
> student at the University of Edinburgh. I enjoyed my course "Data and
> Analysis" where I was introduced to corpora, mark-up languages and machine
> translation. I also have a good sense of finite state machines and graphs.
> I find machine translation really useful and important for many people and
> I would like to contribute to offering a better service on this field.
>
> I am fluent in Spanish, English and French. I would be glad to contribute
> towards a new pair, or helping to improve an existing one. I also find very
> interesting the idea of improving translation based on user inputs, as I
> generally find that statistical approaches make translation more accurate.
> This summer I was planning to teach myself at least one new language. I was
> strongly considering to learn C++: I talked to people with more programming
> experience and most of them agree on C++ being a very useful and
> popular language. However I am open to learn any other language used in the
> project, like python or perl, since I could be learning while being able to
> make a contribution.
>
> I have some experience in open software development using Java, Javadoc
> and SVN. Last semester I contributed to FidoCadJ (
> https://sourceforge.net/users/josmil1) as part of my university project
> for the course "Introduction to Software Engineering". It was my first
> experience in collaborating with developers from different parts of the
> world, and I was very excited to commit my own code.
>
> Could I please be considered to help develop Apertium for GSoC? This
> summer I really want to make the most of my time to improve my programming
> and project-development skills. I am ready to put as much time and effort
> as it takes to fulfill the goals we set. What would you recommend me to
> do in order to familiarise myself with Apertium and its structure? If,
> based on my knowledge and experience, you consider that I could be more
> helpful in another area of the project, please let me know. Whatever I do,
> I will do my very best. Please ask me any information you may need. I look
> forward to hearing from you.

> Thank you very much,
