Re: [GSoC] Best proposal for community?
Hi, first, since this is my first mail to this list, let me quickly introduce me: My name is Clemens Lang, I'm currently enrolled in my 6th semester of computer science at the university of Erlangen-Nuremberg in Germany. When I got my first Mac in October 2008 and continued to work with the console like I was used to from my Linux experience before. However, I was missing some open source software I grew accustomed to and while looking for an easy way to install them other than the usual ./configure && make && make install I discovered and tried Fink and MacPorts and since got stuck with the latter. I'm interested in participating in GSoC, which is also the reason, why I reply to this mail: On Fri, Apr 01, 2011 at 11:05:14AM -0300, Felipe Tanus wrote: > My point is that I could change my proposal #2.

I'm interested in doing the rev-upgrade task; I'd rather not apply for the binary task, because I'm afraid I'd be too hard for me. I would rather like to start slow and finish that perfect than not getting something done completely. So if I could convince you to do the binaries, I'd take over rev-upgrade and both tasks could be completed this summer. Sorry for jumping in rather late, I had exams till yesterday.(Continue reading)

Since we both have the same fears, I spent lot of time on this idea
(since the other Erik thought about) and I also have already written
the proposal, I guess I will not withdraw it, but I'll also propose a
binary tool. Then let the community decide. Of course, I encourage you
to propose the same thing that I'm proposing, or even better choose
another project.
