Hi!
I will start first with my introduction.
My name is Aamir Khan. I will be working on improving HyperKitty. *HyperKitty
is Mailman3 archiver, aimed to address issues listed at
ModernArchivinghttp://wiki.list.org/display/DEV/ModernArchiving.
For more details, you might want to check out my GSoC proposal[1]. I will
try to blog regularly about my work[2].*
I am 3rd year undergraduate student at IIT Roorkee, major being Computer
Science. I am very passionate about algorithms. Besides what I have been
learning in school, so far I have gained programming experience
by participating in algorithms competitions and also by creating several
pet projects, contributing to open source.
Feel free to mail me with any questions or feedback about my proposal. If
you just want to say hi, that's cool too. I am very excited for my GSoC
project and looking forward to working with all of you!

The announcement from Google went out on Monday, so I'm a bit slow, but
I'd like to congratulate the three students who will be working with GNU
Mailman as part of Google Summer of Code 2012:
Aamir Khan will be working on improving Hyperkitty.
Alexander Sulfrian will be working on NNTP access to the archives.
George Chatzisofroniou will be working on metrics, integrating his
MailmanStats package with Mailman 3.0.
Congratulations to all of you, and thank you to all our other talented
applicants this year.It was a very tough field and we were very lucky
to get three slots allocated to us by our umbrella organization, the Python
Software Foundation. I believe this is the largest number of students
we've ever had!
We're now in what Google calls the community bonding period where we get
to know each other and get things set up. Students: this would be a great
time to post a short email to mailman-developers reminding everyone about
what you're planning to do this summer (Google only gives the short
abstract in their public list). I know the mentors are pretty excited
about the projects, and this gives everyone else a chance to get excited
too!
Coding starts on May 21st. So be prepared: this is going to be one
amazing year for Mailman!
Terri
