Hi Omkar Mailing the mailing list is good, and if you know the particular mentor you want to target (in the case of json and javascript it's probably me) then you can always cc them, for some people it will help get their attention.
I suppose you have already seen the material here http://wiki.drizzle.org/GSOC_2012 What really makes a big difference in your application is if you've already committed code to Drizzle, however trivial. This is really the ultimate testament you've For this purpose we keep a list of "low hanging fruit" bugs that you might want to look into: https://bugs.launchpad.net/drizzle/+bugs?field.tag=low-hanging-fruit In the field of JavaScript and JSON I've pointed people at this one, which is vaguely related to the JS plugin: https://bugs.launchpad.net/drizzle/+bug/950570 There is already someone working on it but for GSoC purposes (and even just in general) I don't see a problem if two people independently try to solve a bug. That is also true for the other bugs: If a bug is marked "In progress" but there wasn't a patch/branch attached yet, I think it is fine if you look into the bug regardless. henrik On Fri, Mar 30, 2012 at 9:45 PM, Omkar Gawde <omkarhga...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hi, > > I am Omkar H Gawde, a 3rd year undergrad student pursuing my B Tech in > Information Technology(IT) at Veermata Jijabai Technoogical > Institute(VJTI), Mumbai, India. > > I am interested in working for the project ' Extend JS plugin to become a > real stored procedure implementation ' this summer for Drizzle. > > I have done quite a few projects involving C++, javascript and I have a > basic familiarity with json and will read more about it in no time.
