GSOC 2014 - Interested in working on 'Simplified Scrapy Addons'

[Vinay Raghavan]

Hi everybody,

I'm Vinay Raghavan and i'm a self-taught programmer. I'm currently pursuing my Bachelors degree in Electronics and Communication Engineering. I've been building information mining web-applications using Python/Django for over 6 months during my internship. Information mining also happens to be one of my favorite fields to work in.

Not all the projects that i worked on were open source but a few of the small ones are here: https://github.com/vinayraghavan

Most of my projects have been done are in Python or PHP and they include - entity extraction from Twitter/RSS links, RSS analyzing tools, and job mining from Facebook and LinkedIn.

I would like to work on the project "Simplified Scrapy Addons". Can i please know more details about how to go about it and get started early(should i fork it on Git?)

The other projects that i would also be interested in are:

- New Scrapy signal dispatching

I'd like to get started with this project asap. Can someone direct me to the git-hub page for this project so that i can explore the existing code and start getting used to it.
