Hi,
I'm a fourth year student at IIIT Hyderabad, part of a dual degree program (B.Tech + MS in computer science). I'm looking for an exciting project to do this summer as part of GSoC. I am very interested in the project *yum plugin to handle docker /container images*. Also, I want to start contributing to CentOS in general. I have very good knowledge on Docker and containers. I had done an assignment as part of the cloud computing course in which we developed a simple PaaS framework using Docker. I have worked with dockerfiles and automation of docker commands.
I would like to apply for the same. This project is in my area of interest and I also have the required skill set. Please help me with further steps.

Yum is certainly not yet deprecated in the CentOS-7 lifespan, which is still very much in its early years. The dnf tool doesn't even exist in EL-7, and as I understand it, does not yet have feature parity with yum.
Hi,
I am not sure of this but, doing a little search I couldn't find a DNF plugin as well, that directly handles docker containers. Would you recommend a project for writing a DNF plugin instead ?
In any case could you please recommend me some resources/ simple bugs or sample tasks to solve, so as to better understand the project and work on a proposal for GSoC.
