Hello Gentoo team,
I am interested in taking part in this year's Google Summer of Code and
would like to discuss some general things. More specific, I am talking
about Christopher Harvey's idea to design an application that raises
statistics on the installed packages on a system (see [1]).
Let me explain my issue:
In the first place, I am a Java developer and I consider my Java skills
to be quite well. The point is that java is not part of a minimal gentoo
system, whereas Python is. I would not have problems with Python, but I
would have to learn the API of a GUI toolkit (preferably PyQt).
What is your opinion: Would you be okay with a Java application or would
you rather like to have a Python based one or even some other language?
And finally, how much time do you think will it cost to work through the
Qt API?

Best regards and thanks in advance
