I wish to participate in the GSoC 2026 as a part of the EROFS filesystem. I have been contributing to the Linux Kernel and have more than 10 accepted patches. I have also worked with Android Linux Ecosystem in the past years, and have worked on several subsystems, backports and fixes. I started looking into https://erofs.docs.kernel.org/en/latest/roadmap.html, and I am interested in expanding erofs-utils to stabilize liberofs APIs. In that sense, I would like to know if anyone in the community could provide with some suggestions for my proposal, and a positive impact. Any suggestion or hint is appreciated! Sincerely, Saalim Quadri
