Google Summer of Code ’09 is here…

Oh yeah, summer’s approaching and so is GSOC ’09.

Here is the SOC ’09 FAQ

You’d probably notice that there is a cap limit of 1000 students this year and the timeline has changed too!

Nevertheless, I may not be able to participate in SOC this year for various reasons.

Do you like my design for GSOC?

Development Environment

I’ve submitted my application for KDragons on my dashboard at Google SoC.

Its time now to prepare my box for KDragons.
What do I need?

Use 1 dedicated distro
KDE4
Python, PyKDE, Qt, pygame, Gimp/Krita, audacity.

I start by removing multiple Operating Systems on my box. It has been running ubuntu and windows for some testing. So, missed KDE for some time now. Now gearing up for a re-union.

Kubuntu Gutsy Gibbon finds its new home on my box now.
It is running KDE 3.5.8 and I just finished installing firefox3 beta4. Flash plugin has been found broken during add-on install. Need to report it. I am online at IRC using Konversation.
Next task is to get KDE 4 (after breakfast)
