* Since the beginning of my studies (so more than four years) I work with C, C++, and m-scripts. I attended many courses and laboratories dealing with these three languages. From my 3rd semester on I'm a student tutor for these courses: [http://intranet.tuhh.de/kvvz/vorlesung.php3?Lang=en&sg_s=IIWBC&id=key2689 Software part of a laboratory course (MATLAB)], [http://intranet.tuhh.de/kvvz/vorlesung.php3?Lang=en&sg_s=IIWBC&id=key2224 Computer Programming (C)] and [http://intranet.tuhh.de/kvvz/vorlesung.php3?Lang=en&sg_s=AIWBC&id=key3219 Introduction to Programming (C)]. I have little laboratory experience with Qt4 and with OpenGL I have no experience so far, but I worked with [http://www.libsdl.org/ SDL].

* Other languages of my studies were Java and web applications (JSP and Servlets). Because I use GNU/Linux as my day-to-day OS, I know BASH-scripting and for FPGA-Programming I worked with VHDL a lot.

* Nearly all programming laboratories at university were solved in a team, making use of version control systems and organization techniques like [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scrum_(development) scrum].

* My biggest project so far was [https://code.google.com/p/searchbooster/ searchbooster] a desktop document search tool based upon Apache Lucene and Apache Tika. It was developed by me and three other students in a team using scrum, Subversion (at Google Code now GIT) in a time of three months. I learned like in other projects, that an interface is something you shouldn't break every day and a proper code and comment style saves a lot of time!

* Please describe (in short) your experience with the following tools: ''We only use this question to determine where you need guidance, not for rating!  We by no means expect you to be familiar with all of these and you'll won't necessarily need them while working with us.''
* IRC I don't use that often and I read some mailing lists.
** IRC and mailing lists
* I worked a lot with GIT, Subversion and Mercurial.
* I worked a lot with GIT, Subversion and Mercurial
* I successfully installed a Mediawiki on my homepage once and I'm familiar with Wikipedia.
** Mercurial or other source code management systems
* make, gcc, gdb, javac and IDEs (e.g. Eclipse) I worked a lot with
** Mediawiki or other wiki software
* It would make me happy and stay I see that my work is used in the stable regular releases of Octave!
** make, gcc, gdb or other development tools
* What will make you actively stay in our community after this GSoC is over? ''You can also tell us after applications close and we'll happily try to fulfill :-)''

* Did you ever hear about Octave before?
Since I got to know MATLAB in my first semester, I also got to know about Octave and other numerical software environments. At my university we have free MATLAB student licences and thus many courses are dealing with MATLAB (but I figured out, that you can nearly run all m-files in Octave too). No other questions arose so far.
** If so, when and where? How far have you been involved already?
** If not, where would you expect or advise us to do advertising?
* What was the first question concerning Octave you could not find an answer to rather quickly? ''Of course more than one question can be stated. We try to improve based on this each year! Includes learning how to use it, code, website, GSoC application, …''

* Please state the operating system you work with.
* My operating systems: Ubuntu 12.04.2 (64 bit) and Windows 7 (64 bit).
** If you have access to more than one, please state them and the conditions under which you are granted this access.
* Root access, no time restrictions.
* Please estimate an average time per day you will be able to ''(if separated)'' access
** an internet connection
** a computer
** a computer with your progressing work on
* Please describe the degree up to which you can install new software on computers you have access to.
