Xapian devel - Mar 2016 - Contributing to Xapian for GSOC-16

Hello all

My name is Ankit Paliwal and I am a Master's student in Machine
Intelligence at DA-IICT, Gandhinagar, India. I am interested in working in
"Ranking:Weighting Schemes". I am currently working on Information
Retrieval and will also continue with it as my master's research thesis. I
have fairly good programming skills in C, C++ and Java. Could someone guide
me from where to start in Xapian.

Regards.
Ankit Paliwal

Hi Ankit,

The best way to get started is with this guide we've put together
specifically for GSoC students:

https://trac.xapian.org/wiki/GSoC%20Guide

If you've specific questions that doesn't cover, just ask here or on
IRC.

Cheers,
    Olly
