Because I'm using MATE desktop environment and I want to participate in its development under Google Summer of Code.

Yes, I have reported bugs and requested small features in application, but I didn't contribute to open source project as a developer YET. That's why I want to apply for GSoC, to learn how to participate and get experience.

No, I didn't, this would be my first.

I will definitely continue contributing to MATE because that's the #1 desktop environment I'm using and I really want to help the developers improving it.

===Why should we choose you over other applicants?===
Because:
*I have great commitment to open source applications (I'm using only open source programs on my laptop)
*I know C very well and C++ well. I have written a small and unusual medieval strategic game in C with SDL, and I have written a half-finished 3D software renderer in C++. (I'm going to finish it, I just didn't have enough time because of my university, and I'm still learning the very little details of C++) [I'm going to record a video of these project and upload it to show them)
*I have contacted Stefano Karapetsas, the mentor of MATE via e-mail and IRC too, so he already knows me (kind of).

please answer following questions

Why do you want to work with the Fedora Project?

Because I'm using MATE desktop environment and I want to participate in its development under Google Summer of Code.

Do you have any past involvement with the Fedora project or any other open source project as a contributor?

Yes, I have reported bugs and requested small features in application, but I didn't contribute to open source project as a developer YET. That's why I want to apply for GSoC, to learn how to participate and get experience.

Did you participate with the past GSoC programs, if so which years, which organizations?

No, I didn't, this would be my first.

Will you continue contributing/ supporting the Fedora project after the GSoC 2012 program, if yes, which team(s), you are interested with?

I will definitely continue contributing to MATE because that's the #1 desktop environment I'm using and I really want to help the developers improving it.

Why should we choose you over other applicants?

Because:

  • I have great commitment to open source applications (I'm using only open source programs on my laptop)
  • I know C very well and C++ well. I have written a small and unusual medieval strategic game in C with SDL, and I have written a half-finished 3D software renderer in C++. (I'm going to finish it, I just didn't have enough time because of my university, and I'm still learning the very little details of C++) [I'm going to record a video of these project and upload it to show them)
  • I have contacted Stefano Karapetsas, the mentor of MATE via e-mail and IRC too, so he already knows me (kind of).
