Dear Patrick, |
| 2 |

I am interested in your proposed Gentoo/OpenBSD project in gentoo soc |
| 4 |
page[1], and am planning to apply to work as a gsoc2011 student. |
| 5 |
|
| 6 |
My main OS is Debian, while recently[3] I made exclusively use of Gentoo |
| 7 |
Prefix[2] (being a part of Gentoo-Alt, as Gentoo/OpenBSD) and developped |
| 8 |
some basic taste of Gentoo, on x86-linux, amd64-linux and ppc-aix. |
| 9 |
|
| 10 |
My program skill includes Python, C/C++, bash and a little bit of perl, |
| 11 |
lisp. I developped some ebuild skills when patching for Gentoo Prefix. |
| 12 |
My GNU/Linux experience is since 2003 with a tiny touch on BSD systems |
| 13 |
like FreeBSD, Mac OS X. The main attraction of OpenBSD to me is its |
| 14 |
supereme portability. |
| 15 |
|
| 16 |
I think I am suitable for this project under your mentor. And I hope |
| 17 |
after such I can become a Gentoo-Alt developper candidate. |

What is the next step to make a application to google? |

Yours, |
