Hi,
I'm Sampath Liyanage, a 3rd year undergraduate of university of moratuwa, Sri Lanka. I'm doing a Computer Science and Engineering degree. I'm interested on web based technologies like PHP, Javascript, Ajax and I have some experience working on them.
I hope to do a GSOC project of PHPMYADMIN this year. I'm interested on the projects "Interface improvements" and "User interface enhancements". While a normal web application uses regular http requests which makes a user awaits for the response, PMA uses ajax requests mostly. It makes PMA faster, efficient and more user friendy. Also PMA is widely used by developers, it's opensource and free. These made me interested on contributing to PMA.
I found a bug while I was observing current features (http://sourceforge.net/p/phpmyadmin/bugs/4299/). Also purposed a fix with https://github.com/phpmyadmin/phpmyadmin/pull/976
Thank you.
best regards,
Sampath Liyange, Dept. Computer Science and Engineering, University of Moratuwa, Sri Lanka.
