I am interested in following project as mentioned on
your GSOC Wiki.
Project Title: REST interfaces/API
I am working as an intern at Paypal, India and have worked on REST protocol. My task was to get the data from Atlassian JIRA using JIRA REST APIs and to display the data in a more presentable format (like data filtering, trends of bugs, detailed summary of projects and a graphical format for representing the data). I completed the project successfully within 1 month and have deployed it on Paypal's internal servers.
I want to work on this project because I have prior experience with the REST protocol. I also have worked extensively in PHP and have developed a quizzing website for my college annual fest. I really enjoy working in PHP and developing a new REST API will be very interesting and am willing to take this task. Although I haven't participated in GSOC before, I want you to give me an opportunity to work on this project. I promise I won't disappoint you as I am really interested in working on this project.
I have send this mail to you because I saw there is list of students who are already interested in project so I thought to apply prior to the given date. I will again apply when the application for GSOC will start. Please consider me for this project.
Thanking you.
