Hi,</div><div dir="ltr"><br></div><div dir="ltr">I saw your message, but it’s premature to talk, since organizations aren’t decided. There’s no guarantee that Open Chemistry will be selected for GSoC. We make no assumptions, since Google changes mentoring organizations from year to year.</div><div dir="ltr"><br></div><div dir="ltr">If you want to ask about Open Babel, and the community, it has its own mailing list - in particular openbabel-devel <a href="https://sourceforge.net/projects/openbabel/lists/openbabel-devel">https://sourceforge.net/projects/openbabel/lists/openbabel-devel</a></div><div dir="ltr"><br></div><div dir="ltr">I think the other step you’d want to take is to show some work with emscripten or similar tool to generate JavaScript from C++ projects. For example Open Babel is very modular and has many components in shared libraries (file formats, etc.). Is it possible to have one “libopenbabel.js” and then load individual “pdbformat.js” as needed?</div><div dir="ltr"><br></div><div dir="ltr">I believe Google will make announcements about organizations soon.</div><div dir="ltr"><br></div><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr">Best regards,</div><div dir="ltr">-Geoff</div></div>

<div dir="ltr">My name is Sharan Poojari and I am a web developer with a keen interest in contributing to the development of a JavaScript version of Open Babel. I have explored the Open Babel project and am excited about the opportunity to work on this initiative. My expertise lies in web development, and I am confident that I can bring valuable insights and contributions to the JavaScript version of Open Babel. To get started, I would like to connect with the mentors or relevant individuals involved in this project. Could you please guide me on how to join discussions or communication channels where I can learn more about the project, express my interest, and seek guidance on how to contribute effectively? Additionally, I have built the Open Babel repository on my system and reviewed the contribution guidelines. I am eager to start small and gradually make meaningful contributions to the JavaScript version of Open Babel. Thank you for your time, and I look forward to your guidance and the opportunity to be part of this exciting project.<div><br></div><div>Mumbai, India (GMT+5:30)</div><div><a href="mailto:sharanrp35@gmail.com" target="_blank">sharanrp35@gmail.com</a><br><a href="https://github.com/SharanRP" target="_blank">github</a></div></div>
