I am willing to put in as many hours as it takes to learn.  
I have experience of writing Python and developing using Flask. I have used FLask to write apps for myself as well as contributed to exiting flask projects. I have written tests for Flask apps and also worked with databases using sqlalchemy. Apart from python I am also well versed in front end of HTML, CSS and Javascript.
 
Deployment of the shumgrepper is a major task of this project and I am confident I can do it as I have deployed flask apps with both apache & nginx before. I am a quick learner and I am sure I will learn how to write ansible configurations before the time for coding starts and finish the deployment successfully.
My objective is to learn more while being a contributor
and give back to the community.
 
I am a quick learnerand good listener.
I have a habit of not stopping till I have completed a task.  
It keeps me up everynight!


I will continue to contribute to fedora for a long long time!
===Will you have any other time commitments, such as school work, another job, planned vacation, etc., during the duration of the program?===
I like fedmsg!
My summer vacation starts from May and will go on till June end. I have 2 days of planned travel in the 3rd week of June. Apart from that I am willing to put 35-40 hours a week towards completing and deploying Shumgrepper.
