Dear Amarok-Developers,<br><br>I'm a software engineering student at Heilbronn, Germany.<br>I would like to starting get involve to open source community, as a developer,<br>to gain experience as a software engineer.<br>
<br>Amarok is my favourite app. A very important, always-run apps for me, to listen<br>music, working with a large playlist and synchonizing my iPod.<br>That's why I think this is the right place for me to begin.<br>I found an idea of implementation the CD stack collection view in Google<br>
Summer of Code 2008.<br><br><a href="http://techbase.kde.org/index.php?title=Projects/Summer_of_Code/2008/Ideas#Amarok">http://techbase.kde.org/index.php?title=Projects/Summer_of_Code/2008/Ideas#Amarok</a><br><br>Actually, I planned to submit a GSoC proposal with this idea, but sadly<br>
I did't have enough time to finish it before deadline.<br><br>At this moment, I would like to join and begin implementing.<br>I have a wide experience in programming as a student, mostly in java world.<br>For C++, some experience in small projects. One of them, programming using OpenGL<br>
(about 1500LOC) which my basic knowledge in OpenGL could be extended in this implementation.<br>Furthermore, as I do work placement this summer, in a project I implemented the<br>iTunes Coverflow using Flex for Webapp, which the logic and mathematics algorithm<br>
could be helpful for this implementation.<br><br>Could you give me suggestions, whether I'm on the right way as a beginner?<br>and which step further should I start going on.<br><br>Regards,<br>Nakkapat Boonsri<br>
