This past summer, I was software developer intern at Google Summer of Code where my task was to built a complete tool, including an administrative interface for manual annotation of datasets for Red Hen Lab. I also have an intern project in The Linux Foundation (OPNFV) revolving around research into http-profiling and defining performance metrics for benchmarking of OpenStack’s Swift Object Storage. I have been working and contributing to various open source projects. I have acquired fair amount of open source experience working with organizations like Red Hen Lab, ZENODO (CERN), OPNFV (The Linux Foundation) and AIMA Code. I am an open source enthusiast and would love to mentor students new to opensource. It would be highly appreciated if I could get a chance to guide the students being a mentor in Sugar Labs for Google Code-in’18. Since I am new to Sugar Labs it would be great if you could tell me if new comers can apply to be mentor in GCI and if so what are the requirements.ThanksVaibhav</div> _______________________________________________ Sugar-devel mailing list <a href="mailto:Sugar-devel@lists.sugarlabs.org" target="_blank">Sugar-devel@lists.sugarlabs.org</a> <a href="http://lists.sugarlabs.org/listinfo/sugar-devel" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">http://lists.sugarlabs.org/listinfo/sugar-devel</a> </blockquote></div>
