Hello :)<br><br>Here I am forwarding the conversation I had after I applied at GSoC.<br>I am looking for project to be done in summer.<br><br>Looking for project and mentor. Thanks for help. I need to inform<br>the status to my professor as soon as possible so that I can<br>
take this project as my project elective and work on it for full<br>semester. <br><br>I can work for one full semester so if developer have some project<br>in mind which takes more time than summer then also I can<br>work for it.<br>
<br>thanks and regards,<br>Tushar Mehta<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">---------- Forwarded message ----------<br>From: <b class="gmail_sendername">tushar mehta</b> <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:mehtatus@gmail.com">mehtatus@gmail.com</a>></span><br>

<br><br>Hi Lukas :)<br><br>I was going through the KIO API, its purpose, its application and all.<br>Is this a feature or due some reason KGet developers want download<br>limit? and you are talking about this limit is for all KIO protocols or<br>
for some specific protocol?<br><br>Should I consider this is my project statement? If I am getting details<br>about problem then I can approach to my professor and start working<br>on it as my project elective. I can prepare appropriate documents and<br>
estimation of effort or milestone once I am getting some details about<br>the project. <br><br>Any mentor for this project? as soon as I am getting conformation from your side<br>(any developer) I can proceed for further reading and can also inform in my college about it.<br>
<br>Thanks Lukas for your valuable response.<div><div></div><div class="h5"><br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Wed, May 4, 2011 at 6:13 PM, Lukas Appelhans <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:l.appelhans@gmx.de" target="_blank">l.appelhans@gmx.de</a>></span> wrote:<br>

One thing that might fit into this and which the KGet Developers would be very<br>
interested in is developing a way to limit the download speed of KIO-<br>
protocols...<br>
<br>
The only problem would be that I have no clue about the KIO internals, so I<br>
won't be that helpful when it comes to mentoring... but maybe some of the KIO<br>
devs can do that instead of me. :)<br>
