GSoC 2015 Language binding project
by Kata Jóna 06 Mar '15

06 Mar '15

Hey, I was looking through the GSoC projects and I really liked the syslog-ng 's language binding project. I wonder if it would be good in C++ language or do you want it in a different language. I would really like to do it, but I only know C and C++ languages. Kacsa

GSOC : syslog-ng as a command line tool
by Anshul Kushwaha 05 Mar '15

05 Mar '15

Hi, I am a final year undergraduate student of Computer Science from India, I love linux, C and the Open Source community. I coded for The Linux Foundation in GSOC 2013 and would love to code for syslog-ng this year. I've been using linux since school and throughout college. I'm quite experienced with C and love how simple yet incredibly powerful it is. Here are my profiles: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/anshulkushwaha GitHub: http://github.com/anshulk For this summer, I'd like to implement "syslog-ng as a command line tool". I match the requirements well and this project will help me sharpen my skills. It would be great if I can get some pointers to start this. Thank You, Sincerely, Anshul Kushwaha

GSoC - 2015
by Laszlo Budai 05 Mar '15

05 Mar '15

Dear GSoC aspirants, first of all thank you for answering our GSoC call. Some of you asking how could start with the project. First, you have to choose a project. After that it is highly recommended to contact with the project's mentor. You should get enough information from your mentor to create your proposal. Ask all the questions you need to be answered. After you sent your proposal, you will get a small task. I suggest you to try to be as independent as you can: if you have a concrete idea, want to change something, just tell it to your mentor. (eg.: if you don't know c++ but know python and want to create a gui config editor: it is OK, the target is to have a nice GUI tool and not writing softwares in c++ :-) ) br, Laszlo Budai Sent from my HTC

GSoC Introduction
by Bence Gedai 05 Mar '15

05 Mar '15

Hi everyone, My name is Bence Tamás Gedai, and I am an undergraduate student at Budapest University of Technology and Economics. I'm interested in the "Configuration visualization" project. I have been coding in C for about a year, but I think I have got the fundamental skills needed for this project. I am familiar with C# and c++ as well. The thing that caught my attention about this project is graph theory, I am really interested in his field and in algorithms related to that. I have alredy worked on a small issue at syslog-ng, so I know the basics of the code. I tried to contact the mentioned mentor, Viktor Tusa via tusa(a)balabit.com, but my mails were sent back. I have got a few questions about the project so can you direct me to the proper place? Thanks in advance, Bence Tamás Gedai

Hi, I'm Damitha Kithmal , final year undergraduate of University of Moratuwa, Sri Lanka. I'm interested about the project idea of "*Project: syslog-ng configuration editor using Qt". *I have been working with Qt for more than two years. I also have done my internship in Qt at Millennium Information Technology, which is the largest C++ company in Sri Lanka. I'm also familiar with Squish Qt GUI Testing tool. I'm currently learning about the syslog-ng and hope it will be an advantage to do gsoc with syslog-ng. Thank You -- Damitha Kithmal *Undergraduate* *University of Moratuwa,* *Sri Lanka*.

Hi, I am a junior undergraduate student currently pursuing computer science and engineering. I was looking at the GSoC ideas for syslog-ng and I found the idea of syslog-ng server monitoring with mobile app quite interesting. My skill set includes Java, C/C++, Python and Android. I have worked with android earlier and I have developed about 5 applications, 2 end-to-end and 3 prototypes. I have also been coding in Java for about 3 years now and have a pretty good understanding of the same. I do not have any coding knowledge regarding SSL control socket but I have worked with socket in C for a networks project, so I believe I can pick it up as and when required. As for syslog-ng, I installed and worked around it a little bit and I found myself to be quite comfortable with it at a user level. I believe building a mobile application would be relatively less codebase dependent and more couple in a API sort of way. I would like to contribute to this project over the summer. Could you please guide me where should I start? May be wireframing or a small demo app? Thank you Sincerely, Amar Budhiraja

[GSOC 2015]:syslog-ng configuration editor using Qt
by siddharth singh 03 Mar '15

03 Mar '15

Hi mentors, After researching a while and going through documentation and man-pages of syslog-ng, syslog-ng.conf, syslog-ng-ctl, I assume that you are looking for a application that can help the user to enable, disable ,add, remove, update certain features of syslog-ng using the Gui. I would be using Qt with Python. Please correct me if i am wrong and add if something is missing. Regards Siddharth Singh irc:siddharth7 (1st year Bachelor in Technology Computer Science student from Indraprastha Institute of Information Technology, Delhi, India)
