<HTML><BODY>Hello everyone!<br><br>I wrote earlier <br><br>Here is a link to my schedule:<br><a href="https://github.com/hotab/CentOS-application/blob/master/README.md">https://github.com/hotab/CentOS-application/blob/master/README.md</a><br>I did not add personal info there just yet. I am planning to spend around 20-30 hours per week on this in summer. <br>I might also start early (see previous message)<br>Did I miss anything? Did I make correct time estimation there? <br>I am open for criticism.<br><br>Looking forward to hearing from you, <br>Vladislav Babkin<br><br>P.S. Adding the message I send earlier to make it simpler to find :)<br>P.S.2 While I was writing the proposal, I also answered my questions 1 (sh scripts are too good) <br>and 3 (it should work internally and allow external audit)<br><br><span style="font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18.2000007629395px;" data-mce-style="font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18.2000007629395px;">> Good day there!</span><br style="font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18.2000007629395px;" data-mce-style="font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18.2000007629395px;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18.2000007629395px;" data-mce-style="font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18.2000007629395px;">> My name is Vladislav Babkin, I am from Ukraine, and I want to contribute by helping developing this tool</span><br style="font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18.2000007629395px;" data-mce-style="font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18.2000007629395px;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18.2000007629395px;" data-mce-style="font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18.2000007629395px;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18.2000007629395px;" data-mce-style="font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18.2000007629395px;">> </span>I have some questions:</span><br style="font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18.2000007629395px;" data-mce-style="font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18.2000007629395px;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18.2000007629395px;" data-mce-style="font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18.2000007629395px;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18.2000007629395px;" data-mce-style="font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18.2000007629395px;">> </span>1) Aren't sh scripts good enough to audit a policy?
