Tech student in Dhirubhai Ambani Institute of Information and Communication Technology, Gandhinagar. I have been selected in GSoC for the project "Facebook Integration for Choqok". I plan to enhance Choqok user experience by integrating features of the social networking site Facebook. According to a survey conducted by Choqok, almost 57% of users wished for Integration of Facebook into Choqok. This serves as a good inspiration. I Am Just The Kind Of Person That wants to "Happify" both my Brain and my Heart. On some days, you would find me dreaming for hours and hours, without actually doing anything concrete, on some other days though , I am just unstoppable. I love doing and reading tech-related stuff, love programming, playing and designing Games, and I am a hardcore Cricket Fan. I also write my own articles sometimes when I am in a creative mood.

My proposal for Google Summer of Code 2012 with the idea - "Make KStars more usable for beginner astronomers by adding *What's Interesting... *feature to KStars and by making star hopping feature user-configurable" has been accepted. My mentors throughout this period would be Akarsh Simha and Rafal Kulaga. Also, another KDE-Indian, Rishab Arora, would be working on KStars as his GSoC project this year. :) KStars is a great desktop planetarium software which is used by all level of users interested in astronomy. My project aims at making it more beginner friendly. Well, it is very exciting, and I'll be staring work on it very soon (as soon as my exams get over - which will be in a week's time). The "What's Interesting..." feature would suggest interesting sky- objects that are visible in the night-sky +/- 1 hour. This would take into account the equipment available to the user, his experience level, his area of interest in astronomy and his location conditions (light pollution).

My mentor is Boudewijn Rempt. I enjoy coding and observing nature around me. I speak a lot with my friends, I like to play PC games and watch series. I am really looking forward to working as a part of Krita (super excited) :-) .

You will be happy to know that we have a vibrant community of KDE contributors in India, and now you are a part of it :) We are eager to hear about you, to know your story, to make you a part of us. For this, do the following- 1. Goto https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kde-india and register yourself. Do not select digest mode, as our mailing list is low volume 2. Use an IRC client (or http://webchat.freenode.net if you don't know what an IRC client is) and join the channel #kde-in and say hi (think of IRC channels as chatrooms) 3. *After* joining the list, send an introduction for yourself to the list (send an email to kde-india-RoXCvvDuEio&lt; at &gt;public.gmane.org) - needn't be pages long, just whatever you think tells about you :) Make sure you join the mailing list in 1 so th</pre> Shantanu Tushar Jha 2012-04-24T14:38:12 http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.kde.india/1066 <pre>Hello I am Phalgun Guduthur.

We topped the organisation chart yet again. Kudos to Lydia and the team that worked with her who got this done. I am not sure how many of these students are from India. But I am definitely happy and proud to be part of the KDE project and the way we grow stronger every year. If the students are on this list already, good luck with your projects. If not, please tell them to join this list and introduce themselves and their projects. Cheers!

It has to be done using Qt/KDE frameworks. Knowledge of C++, XML, and JavaScript is mandatory. Past KDE development experience is a plus. Any student wants to grab this nice opportunity, please mail me *OFFLIST*. Oh and it is a paid project, if that helps. Feel free to pass this to your friends and other mailing list.

But the idea is to not restrict the articles to people in NITDGP GLUG, but to people working on FOSS outside too, like people in KDE-India. I sincerely hope that people in KDE-in will pour in their ideas and suggestions too, and help with this newsletter, since the very idea is not to restrict it to groups. Also, since we are trying to bring in more people in our college to contributing to KDE (with a KDE release party and workshops), I thought it would be nice to exchange ideas with the KDE community and take some opinion. However, if this post seems off-topic to subscribers, I sincerely apologize. </pre> Tirtha Chatterjee 2012-02-28T11:19:47 http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.kde.india/1060 <pre>On Mon, Feb 27, 2012 at 12:40 AM, Stephanie Das Gupta &lt;stephaniedasgupta-Re5JQEeQqe8AvxtiuMwx3w&lt; at &gt;public.gmane.org&gt; wrote: Looking at the cross posting and the last line I guess Tirtha is soliciting contributors and content.

We need not make printed copies of this, just e-copies uploaded in a section on our website http://lug.nitdgp.ac.in The idea is to have 2-3 articles (not necessarily original articles, may be some good posts from blogs), one news section highlighting what's up in the FOSS world, and a section on what people in nitdgplug are working on... Can people on this list help with articles? Suggestions and criticism welcome. </pre> Tirtha Chatterjee 2012-02-26T19:02:07 http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.kde.india/1057 <pre>Open Source COM-Beagle Board /HawkBoard workshop For Developers in Mumbai-India Date: 30th Oct 2010 Venue: CDAC Lecture theatre,Juhu, Mumbai.

As part of our curriculum at DA-IICT ( http://www.daiict.ac.in ) we are required to do a rural internship ( ie. work with an NGO and contribute to society in some way ). Now I really want to do this well, so I figured if I could find a place where I could work with technologies I'm passionate about, that would be the best. So I'm really hoping to find some organisation which uses FOSS extensively in its day to day activities and could use another hand. The details are: Time frame: 2-3 weeks in December 2009 Place: willing to go almost anywhere, but I live in mumbai Areas I can work on: * Web development * Software development * Computer/Network setup * System administration * Teaching FOSS My resume can be found at http://22bits.exofire.net/resume.html PS. I would also appreciate pointers to organisations which could use any kind of IT help, not necessarily in FOSS.
