Hi Lois, That's an interesting project indeed! Good luck with it! For bzr branches, you can use launchpad hosting as well - see Help tab at <a href="https://code.launchpad.net/" target="_blank" onclick="return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)"> https://code.launchpad.net/</a> .

I am a 21 year old student living in San Jose, CA attending San Jose State University. I have been involved with open source before on OGRE ( <a href="http://www.ogre3d.org" target="_blank" onclick="return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)"> http://www.ogre3d.org </a> ). I am going to be graduating this December with a BS in Software Engineering. I am excited to have my proposal for this Summer of Code accepted and I look forward to implementing it. I have already set up a launchpad project ( <a href="https://launchpad.net/mnemosyne" target="_blank" onclick="return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)">https://launchpad.net/mnemosyne</a> ) and am still setting up bzr on my server at <a href="http://mnemosyne.loisdesplat.com/code" target="_blank" onclick="return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)"> http://mnemosyne.loisdesplat.com/code</a> . This is a very busy time for me so do not expect anything until around May 25. Mnemosyne is a project that allows for revision controlled home directories as well as directories such as /etc. A daemon auto-commits files when they are changed or on a time basis or per user request. By default, it uses the Bazaar Version Control System as its backend. The project includes integration with Nautilus for easy reverting back to previous versions and finding differences between files. It also includes a graphical program that allows for configuring the program such as choosing a different version control system such as SVN. It also includes a command line program that allows for configuration, and usage of the application so that it can be used on systems such as ubuntu-server that have no GUI. The project is mostly coded in Python with a little of C++ if it needed to interface with another application. Martin Pitt who is my mentor asked me to also post my tentative schedule for the project here. So here it is: Tentative Schedule: Until May 25: Set up bzr as well as SVN to work under the /home directory as well as the /etc directory. Look at any problems that occur and find/discuss solutions with the community. May 25– May 31: Make a proper design for all the applications/prototype. June 1 – June 15: Write the daemon and create test suites. June 16 – June 30: Write the command line interface and fix any problems that show up in the integration. July 1 – July 9: Create .deb packages. Fix any issues that have cropped up and get community feedback. From that point on, .deb packages will be updated near daily. July 10- July 27: Create the GUI application. It will take time to make it user friendly. Integrate with Nautilus. July 27 – August 20: Create final .deb packages. Look at what can be done to make it part of the Ubuntu OS. Fix any issues that are found by the community.
