Hi All, My name is Dennis Chen, a postgraduate student in Tongji University, Shanghai , China. My major is Pattern Recognition and Intelligent Systems and my research direction is text mining. I have internship experiences in companies like BOSCH, NEC and IBM, worked for projects which involved C/C++,php, javascript and perl. In the company of IBM I took care of nearly all php projects of the team, including a web monitor for storage system (php & dojo), an interview system for interns (symfony framework & JQuery), a machine reservation system( php & JQuery) and other small web tools. It's an disappointment that I can not show you the sanpshots of these projects. I really love web programming and I even developed an app as the birthday present for my wife, I can show you some snapshots: 1.png<http://www.likegermans.com/gsoc2011/1.png>is the initial status of the app. I prepared many questions for her and if she answers correctly the puzzle will become more in order and otherwise more chaostic. 2.png <http://www.likegermans.com/gsoc2011/2.png> is the final status if my wife can earn 100 points. I apply the magic of CSS Sprite to form the puzzle. You can see that I use many components in JQuery UI to make this app. Recently, I just added a new feature to a BBS of a group of friends of mine: users can twit others in the posts. They love it! As a frequent user of phpMyAdmin, I'm really desired to contribute myself to this project. I've read the applicant guide, I understand that I need to do some bug fixing work, but I don't quite understand how to find a proper bug or feature to fix, do you have some suggestions? by the way, if lucky enough, I hope that I can take the mission of 'Ajax' or ''Support of procedures' in the idea list Best Regards, Dennis Chen
