Xapian devel - Apr 2016 - GSoC 2016 - Introducing Myself

Hi,

My name is Vivek Pal. I had submitted a proposal on weighing schemes
project for GSoC. I'm so glad and excited to be selected for working on
this project! I'd like to thank mentors for reviewing & selecting my
project proposa,l and letting me be a part of Xapian -- open source
community. I'll make sure to keep up with all the expectations and try my
best to produce good results in the coming months accordingly, and learn
lot of things in the process :)

I'll now go through the project proposal once again just to refresh and
will request to sort out any doubts regarding project plan in the follow-up
emails. Although, please let me know if there's anything that I need to fix
in the project plan or abstract as option to edit that is now available.
I'll complete tax-forms related formalities required by Google as well, as
soon as I can.


Thanks
Vivek Pal

If you haven't already, I'd look at the public summary of your project
and see how it reads in context:

https://summerofcode.withgoogle.com/projects/#4994403428990976

If you're able to edit the "PROJECT NAME" field, the "GSoC
Project
Proposal -" part seems redundant.

Cheers,
    Olly

Hi, Vivek -- if you get your plan and timeline up on the wiki, that
will give you a way of checking over it and thinking about if there's
anything that you want to change. I'd concentrate on the first few
weeks up to midterms.

Hi Olly,
>>Welcome aboard!
Thanks! :)

I've removed the redundant part you mentioned. Also edited the abstract --
removed last couple of lines that seemed not so important to be mentioned
in abstract itself.

Thanks,
Vivek
