At the day July 15, I received an email from The Google Open Source
Programs Team stating that I successfully passed the Midterm
Evaluations. This means that I passed the first evaluation and part of
Google Summer of Code 2011 program.
I know this a late news since it's already July 20th, but I didn't had
much time to write due to other personal issues with regards of my
move away from my hometown.
I want to give my sincere appreciation to everybody that helped me in
the first part, cheered me up, and to everybody that was involved with
my work. This is of course to my mentors, [[http://lumberjaph.net/][Franck Cuny]] and [[http://blogs.perl.org/users/sawyer_x/][Sawyer X]],
the Dancer core team ([[http://ambs.perl-hackers.net/][ambs]], [[http://www.preshweb.co.uk/][bigpresh]], [[http://www.sukria.net/][sukria]], [[http://damien.krotkine.com/][dams]]), [[http://www.perlfoundation.org/][the Perl
Foundation]] people: rafl and mdk. Also [[http://msud.pl/][Hobbestigrou]] for his sincere
comments and chats, that have occur from time to time.
Now for the second part of the program, my routine is more
established, and I know how my work flow is. I can quickly catch-up
with work if I get behind schedule, and work around several instances
of issues.
But more than that, the first part gave me a glance of how the
community works, how everybody works with each other, and how
everything must be documented for further reference. Now, I can truly
say that more than the community, the whole project is about hard
work, spending time for any PR, issue or feature. It's a great
commitment to the community. The time every developer adds to the
project, and helping out is the soul of the project; every
contribution be it, helping someone on the #dancer channel or adding a
really impressive PR is what thrives this project to the successful
software that Dancer is.
So for everybody, that helps me, helps others, and the ones that help
not only on Dancer but other fields related to Perl and FOSS, thanks
for your time.
