Hi all!
I am interested to participate in GSoC this year and would like to choose GNU Mailman for it. I have gone through the proposed ideas and I would like people to tell if they are feasible for one summer!
- Boilerplate stripper AND Better content-filtering / handling error messages.
- No-logging mode.
- Anti-spam / anti-abuse in Mailman.
- My own project idea: Mining the list logs and recognize interesting patterns for better enhancements (the admin need not have data mining experience)
By far, I am looking to duplicate bugs on my comp and am aiming at writing a patch or two before the student deadline, so that I have much more time to work on my application.
# Bragging mode ON. You may want to skip this. And, let me introduce myself. I am Sreyantha Chary (lets make it Sreyanth), a 3rd year undergrad majoring in Computer Engineering at the National Institute of Technology Karnataka. I wont consider myself an expert in python programming, but yeah, I am good enough to work on intermediate projects. I have used Django for my university projects and loved it. Research wise, I am into Machine Learning, Information Retrieval and Data Mining. And coding wise, I try crazy stuff, sometimes just to check if I remember anything from the documentation! # Bragging mode OFF.
People, please let me know your take on the projects I am interested in. How far is my proposed idea feasible?
Thanks in advance. Thanks for your time!
- Thanks and regards
