Re: [GSOC][Easy-GnuPG] Willing to help out as co-mentor

[T K Sourabh]

Hey Daniel,

The following are just my "opinions" and anyone is free to disagree.

GPG is a great tool in terms of the functionality and the features it
provides. But it maybe quite cryptic or less user friendly for some
but at the same time there are people who thinks it's extremely
configurable. This is just difference of opinion, which I think is
good as it allows the new users with choice (eg: various Linux
distribution have different philosophy and hence people have choice).

Now what we can do is expose GPG tool such that it provides an API (a
wrapper like EasyGnuPG and PGP Clean room) which is much more simpler
to use. So, what this would help is let people develop their own
solution using this interface, allowing people to build GUI, TUI based
apps or even web based apps(because why not). The API interface needs
to very friendly to developers to encourage them to develop the apps,
with great documentation(I can't stress this enough). Now, multiple
API interface can exist i.e, one may be client written in python, or
in ruby or pretty much any language you want so that it allows various
developers to build according to their "use case".

So, of course features can be shared this way but design philosophy
may differ with the current state of the projects you have mentioned.

Note: my email client defaults to "reply" and not "reply all". So this
is a copy of message that was supposed to be here.

[Jaminy Prabaharan]

Hi Kai Chung,

It would be helpful to know more about the applicant apart from the project
proposal.It is suggested to update the Debian wiki pages after the
application through the official website.

 Hi all,

 In the past, students created their applications on the wiki

 Now we also have processes for them to fill out details on the GSoC and
 Outreachy web sites but do we still want them to create a basic wiki
 page introducing themselves?

 Note that I'm not referring to pages with the project URL, only basic
 wiki user pages like https://wiki.debian.org/DanielPocock

 Asking students to put some categories on their page (e.g. a GSoC tag, a
 tag for their country) could help to quickly see a list of people in a
 particular country or school.  E.g. if we can see all the applicants in
 Brazil, somebody from the local community there may want to contact them
 about MiniDebConf in April, even if their mentor wasn't aware of that
 event and hadn't been able to tell them about it.

Re: GSoC 2018: Wizard/GUI helping students get started

[Shashank Kumar]

Hello mentors,

I've completed my assignment task and uploaded it to salsa[0] with the
essential documentation and a demonstration video[1] as well in order to
help out in the review process. I've used Python-GnuPG to demonstrate
Key Pair creation, displaying available Key Pairs and Public Key using
the GUI. I've already uploaded my draft proposal on GSoC Dashboard
couple of days ago which is awaiting review. Will be waiting for the
reviews in order to make the proposal better. Thank you.

Project for GSoC 2018

[Abhishek Nand]

Hello,

I am Abhishek Nand from India. I was going through the project ideas and I
am really interested to work on the following idea:

Extracting data from PDF invoices and bills for financial accounting

which I got from: https://wiki.debian.org/SummerOfCode2018/Projects

I have worked with Regular Expressions using Python which fulfills the
skills required for going on with this project.

I have created a draft proposal and I wanted to know whether this project
has been taken or is still available.

Thank You!
