Hello!

     I would like to apply this year for a GSoC project entitled 
„Implement an RHQ agent with Python” that I have found on your 
proposals' list [1].
     As this is my first message in this list, firstly I would like to 
write a bit about me. My name is Krzysztof Kwaśniewski. I study IT at 
Gdańsk University of Technology in Poland, 4th year. Just recently I 
graduated, become a Bachelor and started the second (MSc.) stage of 
studies. Last year I have taken part in GSoC with the Tcl organization, 
however their application was declined this year. My task was to prepare 
an extension to GDB that was intended to make debugging of Tcl 
interpreter easier. I have implemented that extension in Python - the 
repository of my last year's project may be found under the link [2].
     Apart from Python, which is one of my favorite programming 
languages, I also like Java and C very much. Moreover I know C# and a 
couple of other languages that I have - however - little contact with. 
For about 7 years I have been using Linux.
     Heiko Rupp has defined following initial requirements that need to 
be concerned for this year's project:
- installing the needed stuff
- writing the 'agent'

- agent reports some metrics and availability of resources
- agent discovers the resources
- agent startable at system boot
- prepare documentation for both the developer and the end user
     Definitely the project needs clarification and we will do our best 
to make it. The points above are only initial ones. I'm sure that any 
comments from other members of this list would be helpful to make this 
project successful and provide useful software. If you have any ideas or 
requirements for this project, please let me know about them.


                                                                         
                             Thanks

                                                                         
                                 Krzysiek
