Summer of Code Project

[Catalin David]

Dear all,


My name is Catalin David and I am a second year undergraduate student at 
Jacobs University Bremen, Germany. I have recently contacted KDE.org 
because I want to do an internship this summer and Mr. David Faure told 
me that the only way to do an internship and actually get it 
acknowledged as an internship is through the "Summer of Code" Google 
program and that I should seek help on the webpage.

Since the webpage here 
http://techbase.kde.org/Projects/Summer_of_Code/2009/Ideas#Guidelines 
says that "If you are not a developer but have a good idea for a 
proposal, get in contact with relevant developers first.", I thought I'd 
give it a try here in order to find a support and, hopefully, a mentor.

So, my project regards the implementation of MathML standard for 
Konqueror ( https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=30526 ). I am really 
interested in this because I have already worked in this domain for some 
time. Here, at the university, I am part of the arXMLiv research project 
( http://kwarc.info/projects/arXMLiv/ ) which has the aim of 
transforming the entire database of articles at www.arxiv.org to XML and 
then, to XHTML + MathML using LaTeXML ( http://dlmf.nist.gov/LaTeXML/ ), 
with multiple purposes.

Since the website requires this information:

The expected end-product is a similar-to-Firefox MathML formula parser 
that is able to display MathML.

The prerequisites for this are C++ and Qt (I assume).


Thank you in advance for the replies,

Catalin David
