<br><br><div dir="ltr">Hello,<br><br>I'm Avik, 3rd yr (junior) bachelor CS student from Bengal Engineering & Science University,Shibpur.<br><br>I went through the GSOC '13 ideas list and found the project <b>Implement a binding translator for GlusterFS</b> very interesting. I also would like to say that I also fulfill all the necessary prerequisites given in the project ideas page.<br>
<br><div>A little about myself(you may wanna skip this)<br></div>I
have about 4 years of programming experience, I am the coordinator of
the Software Club in my University and help first and second year
students with Algorithms, I sometimes also take coding sessions here. My
team qualified for the ACM-ICPC 2012 Regionals(only team selected from
my university in that region).<br><br>I'm hoping to participate in GSoC since while I'm an avid
open-source enthusiast, I haven't had any chance in contributing to
something this big before and it's about time to fix that.You can find
some of my toy projects at <a href="https://github.com/avikpal" target="_blank">https://github.com/avikpal</a> <br><br><div>I have been going through the links given in your page and
documentations here and there, maybe you can help me with some useful
resources so that right away I can start contributing and in this way sharpen my skills before GSOC actually starts.<br>
<br></div>I will be accessible by
email and through IRC (nick avikp at freenode), but since my time zone
is UTC+5:30, I might not be accessible at all times.<div><div><img src="https://mail.google.com/mail/u/0/images/cleardot.gif"></div></div><span class="HOEnZb"><font color="#888888"><br><br clear="all"><div><div dir="ltr">
