Hi David,
  welcome to JBoss community. Start looking over the projects at JBoss community.  Try to follow a few of them. Choose the one you like and then we can get you set up to do contributions.

Ideally, we like our students to go beyond GSOC and be active as an open source contributor. :)

Regards,
Anil

Hi,

I am David Farache, a last year Communications Systems Engineering student doing a specialization in satellite communications who is really looking forward to become a gsoc student.

I have just seen both 'Implementing native features' and 'Implement a ticket reservation system using Infinitspan' task and I am truly interested in it. Java is my main language and I am quite comfortable developing tools at a application level as I've worked before in several development projects. I have never worked before with Infinitspan so I would prefer doing this project as it sounds more challenging.

There is something I'd like to know: is there some way to prove I am truly interested in the project? Something like showing some of my previous work, or maybe doing a shorter task before gsoc application begins?

Best regards, 

David.
