If so, please send us URLs to your profile pages for those projects, or some other demonstration of the work that you have done in open-source. If not, why do you want to work on an open-source project this summer?

Until now, i haven't done any Open Source Project but I am deeply interested in making contribution to a open source project since this concept enables every developer to learn new things and to contribute to any software to enhance its quality and also his own developing skills.Its an easy way to spread knowledge across the world.
<b>Port To Python3</b> is a project that ports the current Sugar to Python 3.
<b>Port To Python3</b> is a project that ports the current Sugar to Python 3.
Firstly, disussing with the Mentors for the strategy for writing Python 2/3 compatible source or a pure port. .Then I would be porting the Sugar Core to Python3 using 2to3 or modernize package. Since there is requirement of the latest technologies for every software so I would work as fast as i can so as to port it to Python3. After that, if any of the bugs that will be remained then they will be fixed. Also I will be informing about my project from time to time to the organisation. Then, I will be porting one of the Sugar Activity to the Python3.
Firstly, discussing with the Mentors for the strategy for writing Python 2/3 compatible source or a pure port. Then I will work on improving the Test Suite since I need to build a robust Test Suite. Then I would be porting the Sugar Core to Python3 using 2to3, modernize package. Since there is requirement of the latest technologies for every software so I would work as fast as i can so as to port it to Python3. After that, if any bug remains then I will fix them with the help of the mentors. Also I will be informing about my project from time to time to the organisation. Then, I will be porting one of the Sugar Activity to the Python3.
And at last , the documentation for the porting guide for the Sugar Activities will be made.

Convince us, in 5-15 sentences, that you will be able to successfully complete your project in the timeline you have described. This is usually where people describe their past experiences, credentials, prior projects, schoolwork, and that sort of thing, but be creative. Link to prior work or other resources as relevant.
