Hi everyone!

Introduction:
-----------------
I'm Mridul, a senior year undergraduate from IIIT-Delhi. I am really thrilled to have been selected in GSoC 2016 for the Exitmap improvements project! It's an amazing opportunity and I hope to contribute something substantial to the Tor community.
My IRC handle is mtyamantau.

Details:
------------
My primary and secondary mentor will be Dr. Philipp Winter (phw) and Damian Johnson (atagar) respectively. I'll be primarily active on #tor-dev on irc.oftc.net and on tor-dev@lists.torproject.org.

Project details:
--------------------
Official start and end dates: 23rd May (Mon) to 29th August (Mon).

I will be sending bi-weekly project reports to tor-dev@lists.torproject.org. They will mainly be on the progress that I have made that highlight the work done in that duration.

Cheers!
Mridul (mtyamantau)
