Thanks for your interest in our project! It is great that you have alreadyhave some experience working with Java and Android. The kinds of thingswe work are:
* Android Java programming
* building and managing Java jars
* C code and building with Makefiles
* how Debian works
* how to make Debian packages
We do not expect you to have all of these skills, but you'll need to be
strong in at least two to be an effective contributor. And of course
part of this is about you learning new skills.
Next steps for you are to look through the Android Tools team wiki to
learn about the project and what needs doing, and to put together your
application based on the questions in the project description.
https://wiki.debian.org/AndroidTools
For putting together your application, you can see the applications from
previous years to get an idea of what that should look like:

Feel free to ping any of us in IRC when you have questions.
Also ,in order to be outstanding among other candidates, it is highly recommended that you make some contributions, no matter how big or small, to our project prior to the selection phase.
You can also submit a draft proposal after you've done some reading and we can read that and provide you with feedback.On Fri, Mar 16, 2018 at 4:21 PM Umang Parmar <umangjparmar@gmail.com> wrote:Hello everyone,I am Umang, currently enrolled in the 3rd year of B.Tech in Information and Communication Technology at DA-IICT, Gandhinagar, India.Out of all projects proposed by Debian, one idea namely "Android SDK Tools in Debian" interested me.
