Hi everyone,

Wibowo Arindrarto here, but you can just call me Bow for short :). I'm
very excited to be accepted into GSoC with OBF as well!

I will be blogging on my site: http://bow.web.id/blog, and I've
actually made my inaugural GSoC post just a few hours after I heard
the news, here:
http://bow.web.id/blog/2012/04/google-summer-of-code-is-on/. I'll be
posting all GSoC related post under the `gsoc` tag, accessible through
this URL: http://bow.web.id/blog/tag/gsoc/. To follow Peter's
suggestion, I'll post my weekly progress in this mailing list for
everyone to see, too.

cheers,
Bow
