Hi, |

I'm Ishan Khare, a student of Computer Science in Lakshmi Narain College of |
| 4 |
Technology, Bhopal, India; Currently in my 4th and final year. |

I have applied to the project `Synchronization of mails` under the |
| 7 |
OfflineIMAP/IMAPfw project under the gentoo foundation. This is to enable |
| 8 |
syncing of emails between an `IMAP server` and a local `Maildir` |
| 9 |
repository, between Maildir and Maildir repositories etc. Currently the |
| 10 |
`OfflineIMAP` project possesses this capability and the `imapfw` is |
| 11 |
designed to succeed the former as a `framework`. By the end of GSOC, |
| 12 |
following points are to be achieved: |
| 13 |
|
| 14 |
1. High-level IMAP layer using the `imaplib3` library. |
| 15 |
2. A new backend cache (state). |
| 16 |
3. A low-level driver for Maildir. |
| 17 |
4. A 3-way / 2-way merge engine. |

I have contributed to the RbKit <http://rbkit.codemancers.com/> project, |
| 20 |
which is a GUI profiler for Ruby as part of an internship. My regular |
| 21 |
operating system is Ubuntu, but I'm looking forward to jumping into gentoo |
| 22 |
- given the customization it provides and certainly trying something other |
| 23 |
than debian. Looking forward to interacting with all of you in the |
| 24 |
community. Regards, Ishan |
