Hi,
I have shared the 1st draft of my proposal for "adding multicore and GPU
computations to uBLAS"
through the gsoc portal, but haven't yet gotten any feedback on it. Do I
need to share it again on the mailing list too?
Regards,
Vardhan Gupta
Hi Boost Community,
As per Submission template
<https://svn.boost.org/trac10/wiki/SoCSubmissionTemplate> a candidate is
required to show competency in C++ and must be "genuinely" interested in the
project and also in open-source community. Judging of competency is straight
forward, but how can interest be judged?
Considering myself as example who had just got in serious open source
projects(Sophomore Undergraduate). My coding ablilities
<https://github.com/madhur4127/…
[View More]Programming-Competency-Test> are not at
expert level but I am improving and learning myself while my university
teaches knapsack greedy and automaton. Doesn't this gives an idea of
interest in open source of a candidate or am I being a sophomore is a
disadvantage with respect to other post graduate candidates?
I know boost requires serious level work and it has world's most
craftiest libraries but does Boost prefer experienced candidates or take
chances with candidates genuinely interested in development and are
moderately skilled? As per the division rules "A student must be able to
write in C++".
Regards,
Madhur

Hey, any thoughts on that?

Hello,
I'm a C++ developer and have been developing in C++ for over 6 years now in
my personal time. I wanted to accomplish two things with this post:
1. Propose the idea of boost::detour
2. Find a mentor in the process
Boost.Detour is not something new that I'd like to implement but a concept
in programming that I have been using for a very long time now and would
love to have it easily accessible with the inclusion of a simple
<boost/detour.hpp>. The idea is to have function …
[View More]hooking easily accessible
to everyone using C++. Though it may seem like a niche feature, function
hooking is more commonly used than most people think (e.g. modifying
binaries after compilation for feature addition, reverse engineering
proprietary software). It's a beautiful concept when you see it working.
In the process I need a mentor to guide me through the process of putting
down my ideas to paper and implementing them according to the standards
that Boost holds. This includes replacing components from my library with
Boost concepts (e.g. boost::process).
I'm also a student at Texas Tech University studying Computer Science.
Can't wait to hear from someone.

Hello all,
I noticed the following failure in Boost.TypeTraits regression tests

I am asking because a couple of Boost.Contract tests that #include
<boost/type_traits.hpp> fail with the same Boost.TypeTraits error on
this compiler.
Thanks.

Is there any specific template that I should follow for the proposal or I
can make it my own way?
Thanks,

I am a third year undergraduate student. I have a good implementation skills
in C++ . I know machine learning algorithms & math required for it very
well. So ,I would like to contribute to the Boost.uBLAS by doing project1.
Could you please guide me.
