[gsoc] GSOC Students, what excites you?

[Demian Calcaprina]

Hi Anil,

I would really like to be part of Jboss community actively. Here in
Argentina I don't see that being part of the community is spreaded enough,
so this is not only a great oportunity for my resume, but for people that
can become interested in helping an participating. I am sure students in my
university will be motivated to participate next year in GSOC if they see
everyone can help in a community and good things can be done.

I also think the money is a great atraction, but of course after GSOC I
will continue being part of the community and specially of my two
favourites projects: jBPM and Drools. Every time I participated in forums,
irc, etc, the community has shown me that this is the way to go, helping
others and making projects grow!

I guess it answers all your questions with a big "yes!".

Thanks!

Demian
