</span>Hello Abhinav Jain,<br>
<br>
please keep that discussion on the mailing list so that others might can<br>
assist too except there is some specific reason for not having it public.<br>
<br>
If you are interested in GSoC, please start by reading the GSoC page<br>
(<a href="https://devel.rtems.org/wiki/GSoC" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://devel.rtems.org/wiki/<wbr>GSoC</a>) and do the "GSoC Getting Started"<br>
(<a href="https://devel.rtems.org/wiki/GSoC/GettingStarted" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://devel.rtems.org/wiki/<wbr>GSoC/GettingStarted</a>).<br>
<br>
If you just want to do some work out of GSoC occasionally, it would be<br>
good if you could provide more details, what exactly you would like to<br>
do. For example, you told that you have a Raspberry. If you have some<br>
goals with that board, feel free to tell them so that we can help you<br>
finding out what would be necessary to reach it.<br>
<br>
Oh, and by the way: Most people have a quite informal communication<br>
style on this mailing list. So no need for any "Sir" in the salutation.<br>
<br>
Regards<br>
