[Tejas Nikumbh <tejasnikumbh@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

 

I am Tejas Nikumbh, an undergrad at Indian Institute of Technology Bombay. I will be participating in GSoC this year. [GSoC 2013]. In order to imporve my chances for getting selected this year, I would like to start contributing early on to Open Source development via contributing to Eclipse. I am a frequent user as my university uses moodle.

 

Here's a little background info : 

 

Languages proficient in : Java, Python, _javascript_ [+jQuery] , HTML[+HTML5 Canvas], CSS [+CSS3]. C++ should be on the list soon.

 

CS Theory : Discrete Math, Probablity and Random Processes, Data Structures and Algorithms. 

 

SVN : Github, Mercurial

.

Basic Machine learning [Regression algos and some classification algos]

 

Based on the above info, are there any projects at Eclipse which might suit me?

 

Also, Picking up something reasonable quickly shouldn't be a problem.

Thanks,
