Subject: INTRODUCTION, GSoC Aspirant – Interested in Apache Commons Lang

[Vinayak Palse <vi...@gmail.com>]

Hello everyone,

My name is Vinayak, and I am a Computer Engineering(Artificial Intelligence
and Data Science) student from India.
I have experience with Java basics, OOPS, DSA, and backend development.

I am interested in contributing to Apache Commons Lang and plan to
participate in Google Summer of Code this year.

I have started setting up the project locally and going through the
documentation. I look forward to learning from the community and
contributing wherever possible.

Thank you,
Vinayak

Hi Vinayak,

Welcome to the Apache Commons Lang community! I'm Ivan Šarić, and I'm also
a new contributor here.

Thank you for bringing up Google Summer of Code. I am interested in both
participating and potentially mentoring this year.
I believe I have enough work experience to help others in their goals.

I look forward to collaborating with you.

Best regards,
Ivan
