Fwd: FW: GSoC

Hi Lokesh,

Thank you for your interest in working with the AbiWord project in
this years GSoC. Note that Google has not yet announced the projects
have been successful in their application to join the program this
year.

Given that AbiWord is successful in obtaining a place, I'm very
interested in improving docx support for abiword. To improve your
chance of getting accepted firstly you should subscribe to the
abiword-dev mailing list, compile abiword from svn and then show how
you would do the project.

The project description has ideas on this would be done.

Cheers

Martin

Hi Sir,
             I am a Computer Science, B.tech student at Indian
Institute of Technology. I am a programmer and developer by interest.
I have a good knowledge  of C++, python, Java. I saw the AbiWord  2012
ideas page and was interested in the Improve docx format support
project. I have developed many web based software for my college and
want to get involved with the open source world by contributing to
AbiWorld. I have a history of long time involvement with all the works
I have undertaken, so I am planning to remain attached even after GSoC
for the improvement of AbiWord.
          As I am new to GSoC and will be applying for the first time,
so I wanted your guidance in this matter as AbiWord had been involved
with GSoC for the past sic years.

Thanking you in anticipation
