Hi Abhishek,<br>
<br>
I&#39;m sorry, but the deadline for the submissions is set by Google and<br>
can&#39;t be changed by us. You have to submit to application before April,<br>
9th in order to hope to participate to GSoc 2010.<br>
<br>
That said, you would loose much less time by installing OpenSuse or<br>
Debian and build on it... I it has already been written on this<br>
mailing-list, building on Ubuntu is quite hard for newcomers!<br>
<br>
Regards,<br>

&gt; Hi,<br>
&gt; I&#39;m sorry to say, I won&#39;t be able to complete the exercise.<br>
&gt; I have already wasted a lot of time trying to build and &quot;dev-install&quot;<br>
&gt; openoffice in Ubuntu Jaunty but was unsuccessful.<br>
&gt; I already have too much coursework left in this semester now and I&#39;m<br>
&gt; not finding time for this. However, I will graduate in second week of<br>
&gt; May and will be totally free after that.<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; Should I submit the application?<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; Regards,<br>

&gt;         Dear students,<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt;         You have started discussing your applications with us and we<br>
&gt;         thank you<br>
&gt;         for that. Some of you are pretty well advanced in their<br>
&gt;         submission, but<br>
&gt;         don&#39;t forget to file your application to the socghop website<br>
&gt;         <a href="http://socghop.appspot.com" target="_blank">http://socghop.appspot.com</a> before the April, 9th (see the<br>
&gt;         timeline here:<br>
&gt;         <a href="http://socghop.appspot.com/document/show/gsoc_program/google/gsoc2010/timeline" target="_blank">http://socghop.appspot.com/document/show/gsoc_program/google/gsoc2010/timeline</a>).<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt;         I will request all the students to send their patch via<br>
&gt;         private email to<br>
&gt;         Fridrich or me. We will then make them available to the other<br>
&gt;         mentors in<br>
&gt;         order to allow a smooth vote afterwards.<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt;         Regards,<br>
