Hi Emmanuel Thank you for the very brief introduction to all the sub-projects and the welcome. After going through the descriptions of all sub-projects, I would like to contribute to Database (Mavibot) or Web UI (Fortress) areas as these are my strengths. However, I am also interested in taking up protocol implementation for Kerby if it lies within my capability.
As I mentioned to Kai, I could get started with a few basic tasks/solving bugs. If you could yourself assign me a part of testing/coding considering my newness with the project. Or I could help you get started with building the website and documentation as listed in the issues list and later take up some coding work. I also had a question: Will Apache DS be interested in mentoring as a part of Google Summer of Code 2015 as my major aim to contribute is participating in the same program.
