I have experience in working with c++, networking, implementing trace route, ping and other protocols in python. I would like to work on ping6 & ping and also on traceroute & traceroute6 unification as suggested by Mark Martinec < Mark.Martinec@ijs.si>. Mark mentioned that a mentor is not yet decided for this unification, and hence to contact you for the same. Let me know the further process because I am new to GSOC. And, moreover if there is something I need to read before starting off this work, kindly lemme know know. About Me: I am a grad student at NYU studying Cyber Security and interested in working on open source projects for next few years. Also have experience as linux administrator, and development engineer. Thanks Pankaj
