Hello everyone, I've been accepted by Google summer of code this year. I'm a junior at University of Michigan Ann arbor studying physics. I've been 'programming' since high school. I began with some short programs in quickbasic. after coming to college I've picked up python and been working with it for a couple years. I've helped maintain a python codebase for a research lab here and was one of two students that worked on porting it to Py3k. My other programming projects have mostly involved additions to the codebase for labs I've worked for and an odd bugfix or patch for programs I use frequently. I'm going to be spending the first part of the summer, getting familiar with the codebase for SciPy.Signal and doing some cleanup and bug hunting. The second part will be focused on improving SciPy.signal and filling some of the gaps in functionality between SciPy.signal and matlab's signal processing toolbox. I usually idle on freenode as gaurdro and aim as gaurdro1 if anyone wants to talk. best, Ross

Welcome! We are glad to have you, and look forward to a productive summer of code! Regards Stéfan

Hello Ross and All, I was also accepted into GSoC for this year to work on SciPy, and I thought I'd continue this as an introductions thread. My name is Skipper Seabold, and I'm a PhD student in economics at American University in DC. I will be working on providing a consistent user interface and development framework for statistical models in SciPy. At the request of GSoC I will be maintaining a blog about the project, you can learn more and follow the progress of my work at <http://scipystats.blogspot.com>. I also idle on freenode as jseabold. Looking forward to the summer and beyond! Best, Skipper

That's great -- I hope to see Jonathan's package make its return! Please ask Jarrod to add you to planets.scipy.org, the SciPy blog aggregator. Cheers Stéfan
Congratulations to you both, Having GSoC participants work full time on SciPy is really motivating for occasional contributors such as myself. Have a great time, David 2009/4/24 Stéfan van der Walt <stefan@sun.ac.za>

Thought I'd drop my name here, too. I'm Marty Fuhry and I was also accepted to work on NumPy for the Google Summer of Code. I'm a sophomore studying Mathematics and Computer Science at Kent State University in Ohio. My project to implement a Date / Time type for NumPy. There will be two temporal types for both relative and absolute dates. I'll be looking into the Date class from the scikits.timeseries package to plug into my project. I'll also be keeping a blog of my progress at www.fuhrysoc.blogspot.com. Looking forward to an exciting summer! On Mon, Apr 27, 2009 at 9:42 AM, David Huard <david.huard@gmail.com> wrote:

Ciao Marty, Welcome on board ! Thanks for the link to your blog, I was about to ask you about it. Make sure you post the link to the GSOC mailing list as well. As usual, don't hesitate to contact me on or off-list if you need anything. Cheers P. On Apr 27, 2009, at 1:54 PM, Marty Fuhry wrote:
