Hi Prakhar, Is there any developer's mailing list or irc channel of crypto++. > I am keen in doing work in GSoC 2016 in the organisation. >
We wanted to participate in GSoC, but it does not look like we will be able to. I don't believe we will be able to meet program requirements, like Mentors and Administrators. We also heard some mild opposition to participation on some side channels. I think the concerns that stimulated the opposition had to do with quality control, so I was not too worried about it. We have things in place to deal with lower quality code, like using the Patch Page (http://cryptopp.com/wiki/Category:Patch) as an incubator until code matures. We also reached out to our friends at Bouncy Castle about a joint Bouncy Castle/Crypto++ organization. There was interest at BC, but there was not enough support among their ranks. I started working on the student project page at Ideas List (http://cryptopp.com/w/index.php?title=Ideas_List). The Ideas List is just a smaller version of the Roadmap (http://cryptopp.com/wiki/Roadmap) tailored for students and interns. The Ideas List would include some less demanding tasks that are usually just handled by us. I have not uploaded the list yet. If you are really interested (and no one else snatches up your services), then we can work together on it over the summer. I'll use it as a dry run for GSoC 2017. We will do everything I planned for this year, including identifying capabilities, selecting tasks, semi-weekly calls to identify obstacles and chart progress.
