>>>Hi, my name is Tom Randall. I am currently studying computer science at Michigan State University and working as a Web Developer for MSU's International Studies & Programs department. I have been very interested in the OLPC project and have been following it in the news closely. I would like to contribute to the Educational Blogger Project to design a web application for teachers and principals to manage student blogs. Helping students to blog will usher them into the global Internet community, rather than just allowing them to be Internet users. I would like some information on who to contact for this project for more details. Thanks!

>> Hello, I am pavan from Hyderabad, India. I am a final year student @ IIIT-H ( http://iiit.net ). I have sufficient domain knowledge in computer graphics and have the experience in developing games like Pacman (3D), Dxball (2D), Snakes (3D), tetris (2D and 3D), etc using gl libraries (OpenGL) as well as OSG (Open scene graph). I am a LUG (linux user group) member here and am very much into the open source. I was looking if I can contribute to any of the game designing projects or flash card applications. The motivation which drags me into these projects is that millions of children will be using these applications (provided if they get selected) for their recreation as well as developing their intellectual ability. I have excellency in programming, either in C++ / python / Java or in terms of concepts of Data structures / computational geometry. please let me know in any case.

core activities

Print Support

Integration of Espeak into Sugar

Integrate espeak engine with all activities, not just Speak, and provide for karaoke coloring. See Mokurai's article on adapting Same Language Subtitling for literacy to the XO.

speak looks like text-to-speech.. to make SLS (same language subtitling), it sounds like we need the opposite: speech-to-text, then karaoke-style syncro.. synxi?

twexter

Martin Langhoff suggests making an embeddable twexter widget for Moodle and/or various OLPC activities..
re printing above, twext also prints on paper

Develop

I have been working on develop, I am a student, and I would like to apply to SoCode to continue this work. My priority for develop is (after some simple UI fixes which should be done long before then, such as search/replace) to integrate the ideas outlined in bityi. Second priority would be integrating a glade-based UI editor, third would be a debugger. I plan to flesh out this application soon but I just wanted to get it on paper here now.

Also, I will try to promote SoCode here in Guatemala, and I may be able to help mentor in Spanish, depending on the project.

Interested Students

Hi. My name is Cole Sherer. I would be very interested in working with OLPC. I think it is a great organization and have been following the project throughout the hardware development process. I would be glad to implement a flash card reader. I use an excellent one called iFlash for my mac and find it to be a great learning tool. Also, I've had a good deal of experience programming with SDL and would enjoy helping to port the library. If you'd like my help this summer, please contact me: koleslaw54@gmail.com

I would like to work on developing the admin interface for the school server. Please let me know what kind of interface you need and any other requirements? Contact me at dev[dot]sandip[at]gmail[dot]com.

@INDOKLEY We can add one more activity.Name of the activity is "MY Music World". In this we can add some inspiration songs. Right now i am just talking about music but we can extend that link into "My FilmCity".

In this ,child record his/her voice and able to upload and can share with other friends circle. We can also provide some download links that are uploaded by "Music" Teachers. i think u like my IDEA...

OLPC Team can contact me on Gtlak ,Yahoo,MSN and orkut Gtalk: indokely@gmail.com Yahoo: mundel@yahoo.co.in MSN  : indokely@gmail.com Orkut: http://www.orkut.com/Profile.aspx?uid=9779335716818819883

>>> I want to help OLPC by developing the finance application. In addition to what all has been mentioned in the ideas section for finance, I would like to add another feature where-in a OLPC user will have an online identity in a separate Finance portal meant separately for the OLPC users. Here OLPC user can keep a track of the loans he/she has taken from a friend , and thus the loan data may also be visible to other OLPC finance users. This will make money-lending more reliable and simpler. The idea can later be extended to include proper bank transactions. Also I have an idea for implementing a model barter system, the details of which I will file in my OLPC GSoC application. Thank You, Debjit Saha mail and messenger: dkd903@gmail.com messenger only: dkd903@yahoo.co.in IRC Nick: dkd903/dkd903_/dkd903__

I would love to be involved in the production of the typing turtle application or with the board games. I attend the University of Glasgow and have produced an Othello AI already, I would love to produce more and to try and standardise setting up of more games. I would also love to try and help epople to type correctly and would use this to learn about other keyboard layouts and how they work. If you would like to contact me, please do by email or on MSN trancendenz(@)gmail.com

>>>Hello, my name is Shen Lu and I am a student that is currently pursuing a degree in Computer Engineering and Computer Science at Virginia Tech. I am very interested in working with the OLPC project in the form of programming. I find the OLPC program to be an excellent way to spread technology to those less fortunate and it would be an honor to work to bring technology to the masses. I have a lot of experience programming in C++ and have done a fair amount of programming in Java as well as slowly picking up OpenGL. For this project, I would be interested in making either the Flash Cards Applications, Implementing a simple version of Mastermind, Creating a typing instruction program, or creating code for basic games or AI for those games. If I may ask, I would like to know who to contact for more information. My e-mail address is lushen124[at]gmail[dot]com.

Hi, my name is Steven Mohr. I study computer science dual at the BA Mannheim (www3.ba-mannheim.de) in Mannheim, Germany. This is a 1:1 combination of "normal" studies and working in a company. Instead of having vacation I'm working at the German Aerospace Center (DLR) in the department for software and simulation technology (http://www.dlr.de/sc/en/desktopdefault.aspx). I've already have at bit experience in open source projects. I participated for the DLR in an open source project called catacomb (http://catacomb.tigris.org/). I would like to work at the Language Learning Activity. I've looked at the Lingoteach app and it seems to be a good basic for a port to XO. Also I would like to add a feature that pupils from around the world can add spoken examples of words in thier mother tongue to the database. That would give us the change to build a language learning programm with a lot of languages. This database of spoken words could be mixed up with pictures so that pupils can participate even when they don't know one of the existing languages. For the progress of learning it should be positive to hava picture of the words you learn too. My e-mail adress is steven[dot]mohr[at]gmx[dot]de. My IRC nick is king_otto.
