Hi,

I'm Chingiz. My project is Collada Support Improvements For Blender.

* Have you every used subversion before?
Not yet, but Arystan did and he says he'll explain me.

* What OS do you use for development?
Debian Linux

* What compiler do you use?
gcc

* Have you built the blender sources before?
ditto as the first question

* Do you have an IRC nickname?
yes, chingachgook

* What is your p.b.o username? (see above)
chingachgook

* Will you be working from trunk (2.49) or from the 2.5 branch (I assume
most of you will work on 2.5, if you don't know, talk to your mentor).
Though we haven't discussed this yet, I think it's 2.5

* Would you like to have your branch now (if you plan on starting working in
advance or if you already have) or only later (around the official GSOC
start date)?
Yes, I would like to have it now because Collada DOM needs to be integrated
first.

I want to wish luck to all students participating in Blender GSOC this year.
