Idea proposal - Google Summer of code 2011

[Christian Stimming]

Dear Akash,

thank you very much for your interest in working with gnucash in the GSoC 
2011. I would suggest you should first try to compile gnucash on some Linux 
computer that you have access to, then run the software and play around with 
it a bit. http://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Building

Unfortunately I have to tell you this idea is not very practical. Of course 
you can propose to write a finance management software on some mobile system. 
However, this has almost no relation to the gnucash project at all.

As said above, if you want to work with gnucash in this GSoC, we suggest you 
should first build it from source as written on that wiki page.

Best Regards,

Christian
