Thank you,
Mateusz Lewandowski

 Hi Dieter,

I am interested in applying for GSOC , but i am also interested in
contributing in general. As phpmyadmin is a tool that we make use daily
and , its high time i give something back for the support rendered
trough this neat tool trough out the years.

But as u mentioned , for the GSOC i could look in to conversion of a
particular section or module into oop and later once this rush GSOC is
done , we (any one who likes to contribute) can get together and go full
scale with the solution for the conversion.

 If I plan to choose a small part for the GSOC , say  Converting the
User Management (Authentication) in to OOP will it be with sufficient
scope for GSOC ?

In that manner , gradually we will be one step closer for the overall goal.



Regards,

Gayan
