Hello,
I am Arpit Merchant and I'm a Masters student at IIIT-H, India. I've been selected for GSOC '16 with Sage for a project on Rank-Metric Codes. My complete proposal for this project can be found
here. I will also be maintaining a running commentary on the progress on my (as of now inactive)
blog under the "Open Source" Category. I look forward to interesting discussions regarding the project and Sage itself. Any and all feedback is gratefully welcome.
Thank you for this amazing opportunity. I very much look forward to a wonderful summer!
Sincerely,
Arpit Merchant.
