Hello, I am Chirayu Chiripal (aka D-storm) a final year computer science engineering student from India. I am interested to take part in GSOC 2014 and work for phpMyAdmin.
I read http://wiki.phpmyadmin.net/pma/GSoC_2014_Applicant_Guide and saw that you only accept people who have already made some contribution to phpMyAdmin.
What I have done so far?
I have forked the Github Repo of phpMyAdmin and started looking into the code to get the understanding of how it works and I am also trying to implement some of the features requested on sourceforge.net.
I would like to know, what should I do to improve my chances to get selected for GSOC 2014 and do some quality contribution to phpMyAdmin?
Is there any IRC channel for phpMyAdmin where I can discuss issues?
My Skills: PHP, MySQL, JQuery, AJAX, Javascript, CSS, HTML Frontend Frameworks I am familiar with : JQuery UI, Bootstrap
Thanks, Chirayu Chiripal
