Hi devs, I'm Pranjal, by the way, in my pre-final year studying undergrad Computer Science here at IIT Guwahati, India. I was looking at the various GSoC project ideas in Ceph and this one caught my eye, mainly because I fill all three of the requirements pretty well! I just wanted to know if you have a prospective student for this project yet, or if this would be a good time for me to start looking into the project and contributing to the Ceph codebase. I also have a couple of questions. A small issue is that I haven't worked with Ceph before. Is that going to be a huge concern going forward? What do you typically require of your GSoC students, apart from the standard? And, is the file backend project high priority or would you advise me to look at another project, maybe?
