: '''Detailed time line:

: Present to May 24 (before actual working for GsoC starts): I will be studying more about Gnome Voice Control and Pocket Sphinx. Upto this time I will be sure and confident about how Sugar Voice Control has to be derived from Gnome Voice Control. Also we require to test the compatibility of Pocket Sphinx on Sugar.

: '''Weekdays

: During this time, I am involved in studies too. I am having classes from morning 9:30 AM to Evening 4:30 PM. Thus from Present to end May I will be working around 2 hours per day between 8 PM to 11 PM (IST).

: '''Weekends

: I have weekends off, so I can spare around 4 hours per day on weekends. During weekends I can communicate with my mentor any time suitable for him/her.

: From May end I will be getting my summer break which will continue till August end. Thus I will be completely free of any other distraction and thus can spare all my energies on development. During this period I can spare around 4-5 hours per day. Again I can communicate with the mentor any time as I have the habit of working late night too.

: May 24 to June 13: Sugarizing the Gnome Voice Control to obtain "Sugar Voice Control". Implementation of a Command line interface, which will run the speech recognition in the background and will take the simple speech commands like open an activity, go to home or desktop, close activity etc.

Q.12: '''If your project is successfully completed, what will its impact be on the Sugar Labs community? Give 3 answers, each 1-3 paragraphs in length. The first one should be yours. The other two should be answers from members of the Sugar Labs community, at least one of whom should be a Sugar Labs GSoC mentor. Provide email contact information for non-GSoC mentors.

A: ~~[TODO]~~

A: '''My answer:

: If Sugar Voice Control gets successfully implemented, then it will greatly increase the usability of Sugar. This is because now sugar can be controlled by physically challenged children too and thus Sugar will have a reach to a greater section of users.

Q.13: '''Sugar Labs will be working to set up a small (5-30 unit) Sugar pilot near each student project that is accepted to GSoC so that you can immediately see how your work affects children in a deployment. We will make arrangements to either supply or find all the equipment needed. Do you have any ideas on where you would like your deployment to be, who you would like to be involved, and how we can help you and the community in your area begin it?

A: ~~[TODO]~~

A: As I already mentioned, I would like to implement Hindi language models too that will help me testing the framework in my locality. We have some primary schools where students know Hindi very well although they have poor English speaking skills. So testing with Hindi Language and seeing how this affects the children will be a great idea and I am more than happy to set up the Sugar plot.

Q.19: '''Is there anything else we should have asked you or anything else that we should know that might make us like you or your project more?

A: ~~[TODO]~~
