Why do you want to work with the Fedora Project?

1. I want to improve OS which I use every day. First of all, it will make my life easier.

2. I found a proposal that is very interesting to implement: Summer_coding_ideas_for_2012#Java_API.2FABI_changes_checker

3. I want to participate in development of a big real-world project. I didn't have such experience yet.

Do you have any past involvement with the Fedora project or with any another open source project as a contributor (if possible please add some references as well)?

1. No, this is my first time.

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

1. Last year I proposed an improvement to SDL([1]), but they didn't find mentor for me.

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

1. Maybe. I'm interested in improving laptop support. Maybe I will work on ATI/Intel hybrid graphics support.

Why should we choose you over the other applicants?

1. I propose only one project, which I really want to implement, and know how to implement.

2. I have much experience of writing code in Java, because in my university java is used for more than half of all programming courses. Also, I am familiar with packaging system. I didn't create a new package, but at least I am able to add a patch or rebuild kernel package with my own configuration.
