Hello!
bug-hurd, please welcome Carl Fredrik Hammar, who will be working on
<http://savannah.gnu.org/task/?1619>, ``designing and writing libchannel,
a library for streams'', as a Google Summer of Code 2007 project.
Richard Braun will officially be his mentor, but of course we all will
support them.
Giving Fredrik a warm welcome shouldn't be too difficult given that he
had already previously introduced himself and his proposal on this very
mailing list.
Some rules. They may be rather obvious, but let's nevertheless write
them down here.
Mentoring shall take place on the public <bug-hurd@gnu.org> mailing list
(save organizational or personal issues, of course), so that everyone can
contribute to the process and also that everyone else can learn
alongside.
The student shall post reports of his efforts to the mailing list. While
reserving that right, we won't come up with a fixed interval right now,
but the student should at least post his status when requested by the
mentor. (If there are discussions going on, these are of course already
a statement about the project's status.)
Well then, let the fun begin! Good luck, Fredrik!
Regards,
Thomas and Richard
