Hello everyone,

it's an absolute honor to be accepted to this year's Summer of Code. Some words about my project and myself:

The project

The project I'll work on this Summer of Code is "Add Drive dialog". While it seems like a simple work, it may actually involve many components of the GNOME stack, mainly Nautilus and Gtk+ itself. The majority of work will happpen with GtkPlacesSidebar widget, and Nautilus.

With it, we'll get one step closer to the Nautilus Next dream. Also, by the end of this Summer of Code, I'll take some time to improve Nautilus by fixing bugs related to stability, functionality and user interface.

About me

I'm a bachelor student in Information Systems at University of São Paulo. I'm a long-time GNOME user (since 2008), but just recently I started contributing to mainstream, worked on Brazilian Portuguese translations and revived GNOME Calendar project. My personal web page is https://feaneron.wordpress.com/.

I'll give the best out of me, and I sincerely hope you guys enjoy my work. Let's strive for making GNOME the ultimate desktop environment!

Best regards,
