I believe it was how polished it and refined it was that drew me to it.

Proposal Description

Overview and The Need

I'm interested in working on the rpm-ostree operation history support.

Any relevant experience you have

During my lower division studies our primary language was C++, so I expect not too much difficultly adjusting to C. Also, I have taken a course in computer organization which had us program a little bit in C and assembly. Additionally, this spring quarter I will be taking principles of system design, where i'll be using C extensively. After the course I expect to have moderate experience with C enabling me to understand the code and modify it accordingly.

How do you intend to implement your proposal

From what I have read about the problem the solution seems to be to keep the data in the systemd journal. I will begin searching here for a solution to this problem and implement it accordingly.

A rough timeline for your progress

During summer, I will have no other plans other than programming everyday on the project and work on any other related activities involved. I will arrange the best meeting times with my mentor according their schedule.

Final deliverable

a functioning atomic history

Any other details you feel we should consider

I like the Fedora project and the community and believe in what it stands for, so I want to help do my part by contributing.
