Hi! I'm a student from India interested in participating in Google Summer of Code-2014 with openSUSE. I am interested in working on on the "Integrate Windows NTFS shadow volume browsing into openSUSE GUI tools" [1] idea. I've downloaded and used libvshadow through the command line. I got in touch with Greg Freemyer and packaged libewf through osc, as suggested by him to get a hang of how openSUSE development process works [2]. Can the idea of integrating Snapper Snapshot browsing into openSUSE Desktop [3] be integrated with the same idea? There could be a snapshot handling framework built into the desktop tool that could take care of both Snapper snapshots and Shadow Volumes. What else can I look into to get more acquainted with the community / development process? -My background- I have programmed with C, Perl, Python, Processing and Shell Scripts. I built a game for the Intel Perceptual Computing Challenge-2013 [4] and have experience with development for the Beagleboard and Pandaboard. I have also been able to write simple character device drivers for Linux, using Greg K-H's Linux Device Drivers as a guide. I have been an open source user for a long time, and have a commit integrated into GNOME's Anjuta IDE [5] I recently worked on testing the effectiveness of random number generators on a virtual machine with qemu.[6] I also have a fair know-how of git.
