Kind of, but I usually do my research and listen carefully, and don't have a lot of questions. | |||

Yes, I'm interested in the "Improve MPI package" task. | |||

I can't start working until 15 June, because of my exams session. | |||
The summer itself will be combined with a summer job, as I must fulfill the task of doing a summer internship in order to get into the 4th year. | |||
I think I can manage working and doing after-work codding. | |||
