Hello everybody,<br><br>I am a sophmore computer science major in need of a mentor for a project I would like to work on with Debian. I have started a project called Keryx in an attempt to develop a tool capable of browsing all available packages much like Synaptic that is cross-platform allowing users to download packages, dependencies and updates from any computer to a flash drive. This can help users who perform updates on machines without internet connections, dialup users, and provides an alternative to APTonCD by giving users the ability to use common flash drives easily without having to reburn CDs. It is still a _very_ alpha application and needs a lot of work. I plan on rewriting it from scratch, creating an API that would be able to be used with multiple interfaces, command-line and GUI. I plan on supporting package installation as well, which can be done several different ways, but I am not for sure which would be the best route yet. You can check it out here: <a href="http://keryxproject.org">http://keryxproject.org</a><br clear="all">
<br>Would anyone be interested in mentoring me? I would be interested in hearing ideas for features and such.<br><br>-- <br>Chris "excid3" Oliver<br>
