Hello,

I am Emil Condrea, student in 4h year at Faculty of Computer Science in Iasi, Romania. I am an enthusiastic developer fascinated by low level programming. Since two years ago I started to do research about kernel programming. For the final thesis I wanted to improve the existing code in open source community rather than reinventing the wheel so I combined security with virtualization and kernel programming. 
I am developing new features to Xen virtual TPMs. Also, I am going to send patches to tpm library trousers so others can use the new features I implemented at kernel level. I wrote this in C. I can give you more details about it if you are interested.

I am writing this email because I want to write a proposal for Xen based Hypervisor in a box. I want to be a part of this project because I am very focused on virtualization and security and this is what I want to work in the future.

Regarding my experience: I am working since 3 years ago at Bitdefender as Antispam Engines Developer (C/C++). Also, I have 6 years of experience on web development. You can see more details on my website: http://emilcondrea.com

I am really looking forward for your reply in order to know if you think I am the right person for this project. From your point of view is it ok to write proposal right now or should I contact the mentor first?

Thank you,
Emil Condrea.
