Hello, this is my first entry.

Right now, I'm just looking around the dreamwidth site and becoming familiar with it.

I'd like to work on a Google Summer of Code project, especially the Production Monitoring project, or the addition of a "Named Guest" commenting level. I am interested in the Production Monitoring project because I am currently hired as an Apprentice System Administrator for Grinnell College's Mathlan - a network of linux machines that computer science / math students can use for academic purposes. I would like to learn more about system management and scripting languages like Perl.

I feel a bit intimidated because of the overwhelming amount of information and things to learn for Google Summer of Code, but at the same time find it very exciting.

Thanks for reading,

-Jeff
