<div dir="ltr"> Hello everyone,<div><br></div><div> I'll introduce myself too. I am Gavin Howard. I am 21 years old, and I recently transferred to Brigham Young University (BYU) in Provo, Utah, United States. I will be studying Computer Science, Animation Emphasis, so this project fits in perfectly. Right now, I am at a family summer camp run by BYU located in the mountains above the university. I think that this will be the best summer I will ever have.</div>
<div><br></div><div> I have submitted very small patches to blender before, but I haven't done any real coding. This is my first chance, and I intend to do it right. I am grateful that Ton decided to take a chance on me (thanks, Ton!). Like Ton's list says, I will be doing Deformation Motion Blur for Cycles. If I can sneak in code for per-object, multi-step motion blur, I will do that too. :) Because I am a beginner, I made the scope of my project very small (just CPU), but I would like to also add CUDA capability.</div>
<div><br></div><div> Anyway, that's me! I am excited to work with you all this summer!</div><div><br></div><div> God Bless,</div><div> Gavin Howard<br>

To begin: I am Joe (or Joseph, either way!), studying Computer Science at the University of York in the UK. I'll be working on the motion tracking module this summer. As Ton's nice organised list says, I'm on the IRC channel as sftrabbit. It's my first time with both GSoC and Blender (except I have used Blender in the past), so I've got some catching up to do. I'm very much looking forward to getting started, as soon as my current exams are out of the way. :)</div>

Hi all,<br>
<br>
Mentors should have connected to the students in personal (via irc, or mail) to ensure students know who to connect to. If you didn't yet, please do it now!<br>
<br>
For any GSoC organizational topic you can always contact me or Campbell Barton in person. We're registered as admins for this year's GSoC.<br>
