Hi everyone. I am a first year undergraduate student studying Biological
Sciences and Bioengineering at IIT Kanpur. I have a keen interest in coding. I
have been working with various linux distributions including fedora (currently
using fedora 23 on my new laptop(as it's a 6th gen intel skylake processor, I
wanted to have kernel 4.4 and fedora is cutting edge, so opted for it)) for the
past 8 years. I am quite comfortable with tweaking around with system files.
Also, I am fluent in C and C++ (started coding a year before I started using
linux). So, I'd like to apply for the project "Support for end-of-life
notification".
I haven't created a real world software till date. So, I'd like to use this
opportunity to start contributing to open source community. I'm good at solving
puzzles but I want to get a taste of "How to create a real world software".
As the fedora wiki page shows, the mentor for this project is jberkus. I'd like
to get started as soon as possible. Should I send a direct email to the mentor
in order to get started?
