Hi all!

I'd like to welcome you to this little corner of the Web!

In the following weeks, this blog will be systematically updated to accurately record my progress on the GSOC 2017 project in which I have the pleasure and privilege to be a part of this summer, working with the great community of SAMBA!

More details about this project, as well as many more, can be found in Google Summer of Code 2017 Project Overview.

Stay tuned for more!
