Hello Zoi, I hope you are doing well.
My name is Chandana K T, a 3rd-year CSE (AIML) student and an open-source contributor. I have previously contributed to *Apache Airflow* and I am very interested in the GSoC 2026 project idea "*Implement a JDBC Driver for Apache Wayang*". I have read through the project description and understand that the goal is to design a JDBC-compliant driver that delegates SQL queries to Wayang’s SQL API and exposes results through standard JDBC interfaces. I would appreciate your guidance on a few points: 1. Are there any existing design guidelines or preferred architecture for how the JDBC driver should interact with Wayang’s SQL module? 2. Are there specific JDBC features (such as PreparedStatement support, metadata completeness, or transactions) that you consider most important to prioritize for the GSoC implementation? 3. Would you recommend starting with any particular module or part of the Wayang codebase? I plan to set up Wayang locally and start exploring small issues related to the SQL/API layer before proposal submissions. Any pointers on good first steps would be very helpful. Thank you for your time and for mentoring this project. Best regards, Chandana K T GitHub: https://github.com/Chandanakt
