Re: Getting Introduced with the Community and Looking forward to Contribute to the Project as part of Gsoc 2014

Hi,

I wish to remind to discuss about the Project Ideas with the mentor and
express my thoughts, ideas and way to through the project so as
to get a successful Gsoc work.

Two of the above ideas mentioned in the previous mail founds
to be very much appealing to me and I am looking forward
to start contributing to them.
Could you Please help me in guiding to work on the project idea
and move ahead.

Thanks
