Hello, I'm an electronic engineering student from Austria and I have a question to KDEs GSoC. There are a lot of good ideas for GSoC, I'm already preparing a proposal for kdevelop. However, I was also thinking about the open source project I have started last year. It's an application for calculation of physical expressions (and of course non-physical expressions). It is a mix between an algebra system and a pocket calculator, more precise: its a text editor with advanced calculation features, especially for technicians and people who often have to calculate formulas with physical units. The program I'm talking about is PhyxCalc ( http://kde-apps.org/content/show.php/PhyxCalc?content=149161). PhyxCalc was originally coded in Delphi, last year I contacted the author of the application and we started to develop an opensource version in the Christmas holidays. The author helped me a lot, especially with the algorithms for the parser, but I commited most of the code. Why I'm writing this? I realized that KDE has a calculator (KCalc) and a function plotter (KAlgebra), but maybe the KDE project might be interested in a more advanced calculation application. It would be nice for me to work for this project on GSoC (yes I will work on this project also without GSoc, but I could code a lot more if I would get paid for it). If you are interested, I'll make a proposal.
Regards Alexander Rössler (aka Strahlex)
